Living In The Anthropocene: Earth in the Age of Humans by W. John Kress, Elizabeth Kolbert, Edward O. Wilson, Jeffrey K. Stine, Thomas E. Lovejoy
3.0
This is really not a bad introduction to the topic of the "Anthropocene." The concept is exceedingly complex and it clearly shows that we (as in humanity) may be in over our heads in what we can do(if we can even agree we have a worldwide crisis on our hands.
I did enjoy the range of topics this covered and even made me realize how many spheres the Anthropocene covers. I only wish this book was longer and the essays went into more depth since such treating these issues in such a topical way only serves as a "tease" rather than truly informing the reader.
All things considered, the Anthropocene is a fascinating topic and one that I've thought a lot on since childhood and one that I will continue to research myself.
