Sustainability of the earth and its natural resources represents a crucial issue that must be addressed in this technology–centric century. Although information services are generally not physical in nature and therefore do not directly result in the emission of greenhouse gasses or destruction of other natural resources, software does play a vital role in controlling machines and buildings that have a direct impact on the environment. When the target domain of software to be developed has a potential impact on the global environment, complex factors should be taken into consideration during the analysis and definition of requirements. This is a new challenge facing Requirements Engineering.<B>Keywords:</B> <LI>requirements elicitation, analysis, documentation, validation and verification; <LI>requirements specification languages, methods, processes, and tools; <LI>requirements management, traceability, viewpoints, prioritization, and negotiation; <LI>modelling of requirements (formal and informal), goals, and domains; <LI>prototyping, simulation, and animation; <LI>interaction between requirements and design; <LI>evolution of requirements over time, product families, and variability; <LI>relating requirements to business goals, products, architecture, and testing; <LI>social, cultural, global, personal and cognitive factors in requirements engineering; <LI>collaborative requirements engineering; <LI>domain–specific problems, experiences and solutions<BR></LI>
