Diagram of coupled human and natural systems

Figure 1.1.2. A simple illustration of coupled human and natural systems with reference to food production. The list of human and natural system components on each side of the diagram is not exhaustive, and the diagram will be revisited throughout the course. The reciprocal arrows represent the mutual effects of each subsystem on the other, and are highly schematic, although they can denote specific impacts or feedbacks that will be addressed in module 1.2 and beyond.
