The 6th International Conference on Environmental Future: Interdisciplinary Progress in Environmental Science and Management was held from 18-22 July 2011 at Newcastle University in the UK.
Before the conference, a series of review papers and regular contributions were published in Environmental Conservation in a thematic section on Interdisciplinary Progress in Environmental Science and Management. The review papers formed the basis of keynote presentations at the conference. All papers are listed below with links to the full versions which are available via Cambridge University Press.
