Never before, societies have been so aware and concerned about the impact that human activities have on the natural environment. At the same time, we already see the first consequences caused by the scarcity of natural resources that have driven the progress and economic development of an important part of humanity over the last centuries. The concept of “global change” is an instrument to interpret the profound planetary transformations taking place, as well as those necessary in the short and medium term to guarantee the well-being of our society in an unprecedented scenario.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarc Oliva is a professor at the Department of Geography of the Universitat de Barcelona, leads a research group on Antarctic, Arctic, and Alpine environments (ANTALP). He has carried out almost twenty expeditions to Antarctica and the High Arctic and dozens to high mountain areas. This has provided him with a high understanding of the interaction between climatic variability and present and past geomorphological processes in cold regions of the Earth, as well as their response to global change.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eJordi Martín-Díaz is a lecturer at the Department of Geography of the Universitat de Barcelona and a member of the ANTALP research group.
