“…Activating such social tipping interventions necessarily involves a shift of individual and collectively shared social values away from individualism and materialism to principles like responsibility, stewardship, and justice (59,123). Such shifts in values will require structural actions as well, such as eliminating subsidies which presently support fossil fuel uses (139) or activities harming biodiversity like deforestation (140)(141)(142) or overfishing (143); such subsidies currently prevent the take-off of alternative approaches and technologies that would immediately aid climate change mitigation by avoiding further emissions. Transformative governance would also entail creating coalitions of support to confront recalcitrant and powerful interest groups (such as economic actors benefiting from fossil-fuel subsidies) whose goal is keeping economic privileges and the political status quo and who lobby against transformative agendas (144).…”

Earth’s biodiversity and human societies face pollution, overconsumption of natural resources, urbanization, demographic shifts, social and economic inequalities, and habitat loss, many of which are exacerbated by climate change. Here, we review links among climate, biodiversity, and society and develop a roadmap toward sustainability. These include limiting warming to 1.5°C and effectively conserving and restoring functional ecosystems on 30 to 50% of land, freshwater, and ocean “scapes.” We envision a mosaic of interconnected protected and shared spaces, including intensively used spaces, to strengthen self-sustaining biodiversity, the capacity of people and nature to adapt to and mitigate climate change, and nature’s contributions to people. Fostering interlinked human, ecosystem, and planetary health for a livable future urgently requires bold implementation of transformative policy interventions through interconnected institutions, governance, and social systems from local to global levels.
