These range from well‐mixed, global boundaries, such as climate‐altering atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations, localized limits on freshwater availability reactive nitrogen entering environment. Recent estimates suggest six already been breached. The food is key driver these exceedances and, therefore, play role in any solutions. However, establishment analysis potential solutions often devoid economic considerations. Furthermore, case several limited attention has given policies might allow society address them, well likely synergies tradeoffs across targeted individual objectives. This paper seeks bring further bear quantitative assessment local aimed at respecting concluding with seven lessons inform future research this topic.
