Science Café: Postcards from the Anthropocene
Manage episode 270714547 series 2782812
Human beings have changed Earth so extensively that geologists now propose renaming our current epoch as the Anthropocene—the era defined by people. Human influences are apparent in the shape of landscapes, the extent of biodiversity, ocean chemistry, and our climate. We will explore the history of human influence on Earth and the ideas driving the concept of the Age of Humans, taking time to discuss consequences and implications for our future world.
- Julia Cole, U-M Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences
