One criticism seems to be based on a rather bizarre conflation of a state of the Earth System with (i) the time when individual biological species evolved, and (ii) the nature and distribution of human - altered terrestrial ecosystems.

Further increased efforts will be needed in linking terrestrial ecosystems with the atmosphere, the land with the ocean, the ocean (and its ecosystems) with the atmosphere, the chemistry of the atmosphere with the physics of the atmosphere, and finally linking the human system to them all.
