<slide title="Introduction"> Many of the human behaviors that drive climate change and environmental degradation are deeply embedded in our society, economy, and government, and are mutually reinforcing. Better modeling of human-natural systems can help in many ways:
- Analyzing feedback loops can help identify leverage points, where small policy changes can have pervasive
impacts.
- Allowing models at diverse scales and contexts to
interact can help scientists integrate knowledge.
- Interactive models can facilitate communication
with policymakers and make complex problems intelligible.
