1 Action Plan Resources

2 Intersections of geoscience and sustainability

3 Society and geoscience Human security Natural hazards Toxic hazards Food security Disease Energy security Availability of resources Social equitability Open space Access to resources Efficient transportation Efficient housing Education Jobs Economics and geoscience Resource economics Land use planning, Land value Energy Mining Agriculture Fisheries Forests Environmental regulations Permitting Carbon emissions Cap and trade Infrastructure Environment and geoscience Water Air Climate Biodiversity Soils Forests Coastlines Oceans Grasslands Habitats Pollution Intersections of geoscience and sustainability

4 Society and climate Human security Extreme weather Sea level rise Food security Water resources Disease Energy security Availability of resources Displaced population International tension or cooperation Social equitability Efficient transportation Efficient housing Unequal distribution of impacts Economics and climate Price of energy Emissions policy Price of food Price of water Property destruction (sea level rise) Impacts of emergency response, health care Impacts to tourism Impacts to recreation Costs of carbon sequestration Costs of other adaptation measures Environment and climate Species loss Habitat alteration/destruction Impacts from carbon- free energy (nuclear waste) Benefits from carbon- free energy (renewables) Climate feedbacks Unpredictable impacts Effects of carbon sequestration Specific example for climate

5 Society and energy Human security Energy security Mine safety Social equitability Efficient transportation Efficient housing Affordability of energy Storage of waste products Viewshed Jobs Economics and energy Price of energy Emissions policy Infrastructure Rare earth elements Military conflicts over resources Costs of cleanups Costs of waste storage Environment and energy Acid mine drainage Nuclear waste Greenhouse gas emissions Dams Impacts to air Impacts to water Oil spills Specific example for energy
