Welcome to the Anthropocene
Watch human and urban life evolve in this 3-minute journey through the last 250 years of our history, starting at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
What is Next Nature?
With our attempts to cultivate nature, humankind causes the rising of a next nature, which is wild and unpredictable as ever. Wild systems, genetic surprises, autonomous machinery and splendidly beautiful black flowers. Nature changes along with us.
Discussion
There is the absurd suggestion in the way this is edited that human and urban life began in England! And then spread out from the across Europe and into Asia.
Nice video. I think welcome to the Noosphere would be a better title as it depicts the new sphere on earth caused by human mind and activity.
It looks this video overlaid current telecommunications networks on a three-dimensional model, rather than showing historical development. It is strange the way that it suggests everything originated in England.
It has to be watched along with the narrated version. It says the Industrial Revolution started in England then spread elsewhere.
