    Abstract

    There is no doubt that today, perhaps more than ever before, humanity faces a myriad of complex and demanding challenges. This has been propelled by the ever increasing global population and intense pressure being exerted on the Earth’s resources. The resulting consequences are severe changes in land cover (e.g., forests giving way to settlements), diminishing biodiversity and natural habitats, dwindling fresh water supplies, and the degradation in the quality of the little that is available, and changing weather and climatic patterns, especially global warming with its associated predicted catastrophes such as rising sea level and increased numbers of extreme weather events.

    Curtin would like to pay respect to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander members of our community by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which the Perth campus is located, the Whadjuk people of the Nyungar Nation; and on our Kalgoorlie campus, the Wongutha people of the North-Eastern Goldfields.
