Abstract
Fifteen core indicators of global change and human impacts have been changing at an astonishingly constant rate for nearly 70 years. Correlations among these indicators support the prevailing scientific understanding of climate change, and suggest how difficult it will be to change course, but there are two trends that, if continued, could lead to a stable global population and a carbon-neutral global economy.
