Cover: In this issue, William J. Ripple and his colleagues provide an update to 1992's landmark “World Scientists΄ Warning to Humanity,” (www.ucsusa.org/about/1992-world-scientists.html ), which was issued by the Union of Concerned Scientists and some 1700 signatories. The “Second Notice” published here, which was signed by over 15,000 scientists from 184 countries, tracks humanity's progress in addressing the threats outlined in the original letter.
