Abstract
A recent warning to humanity signed by >15 000 scientists identified global environmental threats that require urgent policy response from world leaders (Ripple et al 2017). Here, we document challenges and propose solutions related to ongoing shifts in natural disturbance regimes, which are both a
cause and a consequence of major environmental perils.
