Anthropocene - Dot Earth Blog - The New York Times

Earlier this month I had a chat on the fate of the planet and humanity in a Brooklyn bookstore with David Biello, who recently became curator of science at TED (as in talks) after many years at Scientific American. The subject was his first book, “Unnatural World: The Race to Remake Civilization in Earth’s Newest Age” — a brisk, unsettling and, yes, hopeful, guide to the Anthropocene. We also touched on my recent magazine essay, “ An Anthropocene Journey.”
