The Sustainable Research Theme reflects intensified debate about the need for environmental sustainability for long-term ecological and social sustainability. Its inclusion reflects the integration of ‘sustainable’ issues across a range of public policy and research. High profile debates about climate change, species extinction, drought, deforestation and Kyoto testify to the increasing importance of the Sustainable Research Theme.
