Planet Under Stress presents a scientific appraisal of large-scale environmental change, combining Earth-systems evidence with analysis of human influence. Sponsored by the Royal Society of Canada, it is part of the Canadian global-change programme.

The book outlines how natural processes and human activities alter climate, ecosystems and biogeochemical cycles, then evaluates pathways to change current trajectories and reduce long-term risk.

Written for researchers, policymakers and students, the study emphasizes cross-disciplinary methods and policy-relevant conclusions useful for planning and analysis.
