Abstract
Kennedy et al. (2019) presents a new map of cumulative human pressures across Earth’s non‐Antarctic land areas, called the Human Modification (HM) map. The paper builds off previous efforts to map the ecology of the Anthropocene (Ellis and Ramankutty 2007) and identify Earth’s last wild places (Sanderson et al. 2002), yet paints a different picture of the state of the terrestrial planet and opportunities for conservation.
