It is both the urgency of those prob lems and the potential for their solu tion that motivated the formation of the International Nitrogen Initiative (INI; http://initrogen.org). The INI, sponsored by the Scientific Council on Problems in the Environment and the International Geosphere-Biosphere Program, comprises networks of scientists around the globe who are committed to furthering our understanding of a changing nitrogen cycle and communicating its importance to the world, as well as to helping solve the problems it is causing. Much like the case with climate change, achieving those goals requires a broadly interdisciplinary community of experts, ranging from research scientists, to land managers, to policymakers, to members of the private sector.
