SBU 102.S146 : Living in the Anthropocene
Spring 2025
F.M. Walter
The Anthropocene is that time during which humans
have made a lasting impact on
the Earth.
Since the discovery of agriculture, we humans
have been running a largely uncontrolled experiment that involves the future
of humanity and perhaps the future inhabitability of Earth.
In this seminar we shall examine the
results of this on-going experiment, discuss consequences for
the future of humanity, and consider possible solutions.
