[U01-04] Planetary Stewardship in AGU
Society today is facing many challenges, and opportunities, that critically depend on the Earth and space sciences. Planetary stewardship is intertwined throughout these topics as many of the challenges and opportunities in the 21st century are at the global scale. Societies, by catalyzing, leveraging, and engaging members the our science, play a key role in addressing these. Leadership is needed through strategic efforts, mobilizing our science, policy positions, programming, communication and engaging the public in new ways, expanding our scientific community and providing a welcoming culture that rewards planetary stewardship, and also developing partnerships with new stakeholders. Examples at AGU include our new strategic plan; position statements, for example on Addressing Climate Change and on Open FAIR data; and programs such as the Thriving Earth Exchange, Ethics, and Voices for Science.
