Now the most prominent fruits of the planetary sustainability project are all available online, and open access.

I thank Cambridge University Press and the editor-in-chief of GlobalSustainability, Johan Rockström, for the great opportunity of this collaboration.

I also want to mention again the overview article I wrote together with astrophysicist André Galli for the COSPAR community (recently quoted by Peter Singer): https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2214552418301019

Feel free to share and tweet about the articles. I am looking forward to your feedback.
