Abstract
The authors summarize the results of the international symposium "The Earth as Transformed by Human Action" held at Clark University, USA, in October 1987 with the purpose of inventorying human impact and environmental changes over the last three centuries. There are suggestions on the comparison of driving forces and environmental changes on the regional and global scales, and on the conceptualization of the human dimensions of global change. Some perspectives of the further development of the international and interdisciplinary "Earth Transformed" project are also discussed.
