This award will provide support for The ?Planet Under Pressure: new knowledge towards solutions? conference (26-29 March 2012, London) being developed by the International Geosphere Biosphere Program (IGBP) in conjunction with the International Council for Sciences international global environmental change research partners. Building on a comprehensive update of our current knowledge of the Earth system and the pressure it is under, the conference will present and debate new insights into potential opportunities and constraints for innovative development pathways based on novel partnerships. The conference will focus on three broad themes which are critical to the scientific and societal challenges surrounding global sustainability. These themes are: 1. Meeting global needs: food, energy, water and other ecosystem services; 2. Transforming our way of living: development pathways under global environmental change; and3. Governing across scales: innovative stewardship of the Earth system. This conference will provide a critical step toward reaching solutions to these challenges and will provide a venue to highlight the current state of our planet prior to the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20) in June of 2012. The conference will bring together 2,500 global change experts from around the world in a discussion of the current status of, future predictions for and potential solutions to the issue of global change as it relates to human and environmental sustainability. The synthesis of ideas generated at the conference will advance our collective understanding of the pressures on our planet and what steps need to be taken to alleviate these pressures while maintaining and promoting quality of life. The conference will provide a venue for early career and developing country scientists and students to forge new international networks and partnerships to better understand and overcome the issues involved in providing pathways for a sustainable planet. A major component of the conference will be stakeholder engagement through plenary talks, technical sessions, workshops and seminars. In addition, the conference will include strong policy and science interactions through these mechanisms and strong public engagement through webcasts and interactive media.

该奖项将提供支持的？压力下的地球：解决方案的新知识？会议（2012年3月26日至29日，伦敦）由国际地圈生物圈计划（IGBP）与国际科学理事会国际全球环境变化研究合作伙伴联合举办。 在全面更新我们目前对地球系统及其所受压力的了解的基础上，会议将提出和辩论关于基于新型伙伴关系的创新发展道路的潜在机会和制约因素的新见解。 会议将重点讨论三大主题，这些主题对围绕全球可持续性的科学和社会挑战至关重要。 这些主题是：1.满足全球需求：粮食、能源、水和其他生态系统服务; 2.改变我们的生活方式：全球环境变化下的发展道路;跨尺度治理：地球系统的创新管理。这次会议将为解决这些挑战迈出关键一步，并将为在2012年6月联合国可持续发展大会（里约+20）之前突出我们星球的现状提供一个场所。 会议将汇集来自世界各地的2 500名全球变化专家，讨论全球变化问题的现状、未来预测和可能的解决办法，因为它涉及人类和环境的可持续性。 会议上产生的各种想法的综合将促进我们对地球上的压力以及需要采取哪些步骤来减轻这些压力，同时保持和提高生活质量的集体理解。会议将为早期职业和发展中国家的科学家和学生提供一个场所，以建立新的国际网络和伙伴关系，更好地了解和克服为可持续地球提供途径所涉及的问题。 会议的一个主要组成部分将是通过全体会议、技术会议、讲习班和研讨会让利益攸关方参与。 此外，会议将包括通过这些机制进行强有力的政策和科学互动，以及通过网播和互动媒体进行强有力的公众参与。
