At the workshop experts considered the fledgling organization’s mission – to further the interdisciplinary understanding of global environmental change and Earth system science. Until February 1995, when it became an independent non-profit in its own right, AGCI operated under the non-profit 501(c)3 umbrella of the Windstar Foundation – an environmental organization co-founded by Tom Crum and John Denver.&nbsp;</font></span></div><div><span style="text-align: justify; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">

Its first interdisciplinary workshop spanned three weeks in July and August taking a broad look at the emerging field of global change science. Talks and discussions focused on the nexus of social and physical science in understanding global scale change from atmospheric chemistry, climate change, to human population dynamics, biodiversity, and changes to the land surface. A group of nationally recognized educators participated for part of the first summer to explore the educational opportunities offered by global change science.</span></font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman"></font></div><div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">Board of Directors</font></div><div><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">Dr. Rosamond L.
