Our science today exists in a world of rapid economic, political, and technological change. Challenges to the importance of science in the world abound, yet science has never been more important to the future of humankind on Earth. The goal for AGU is to continue delivering quality programs and services that strengthen our international scientific community while undertaking new initiatives that will ensure that the Union remains a relevant and vibrant organization for years to come. You, AGU members, have made the Union the preeminent geophysical society in the world today.
