Humanity is changing the Earth in ways never seen before. The oceans are acidifying, the climate is changing, and the world is awash in plastic. Scientists are telling us that we have pushed the Earth into an entirely new state, one dominated by human activity.
Welcome to the Anthropocene: the era of humankind
If we have the power to shape the deep future of the Earth and all living things upon it, then how should we think, act and feel in this decisive moment?
Come for a wild ride through our ancient WA landscapes as never seen before over a drink at the pub.
