A statement by the participants of the Eighth Royal Colloquium, hosted by His Majesty King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden. The Royal Colloquium was held from 26 to 30 June in Narsaq, Greenland, where His Majesty was joined by 15 scholars from around the world to explore the topic "Past Climate Change: Human Survival Strategies." The climate issue has broadened and deepened in both the research and policy-making communities since the Seventh Royal Colloquium 2 years ago, which explored the particularly rapid and severe climatic changes now occurring in the Arctic. The discussion has moved strongly to the responses to climate change and to the other challenges arising from the interaction of modern societies with our environment.
