FOOTPRINTS : IN SEARCH OF FUTURE FOSSILS / DAVID FARRIER London : 4th Estate, an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers, 2020 307 pages ; 22 cm text rdacontent unmediated rdamedia volume rdacarrier The author surveys the traces we will leave for peoples in the very distant future. He shows that modern civilization has created objects and landscapes with the potential to endure through deep time, including the plastic polluting the oceans, the nuclear waste entombed within the earth, and the thirty million miles of paved roads spanning the planet. This is his meditation on climate change and the Anthropocene, and an urgent search for fossils--industrial, chemical, geological--that humans are leaving behind. -- adapted from inside front dust jacket Human ecology Fossils Geology, Stratigraphic Anthropocene Human geography Nature Effect of human beings on Climatic changes Effect of human beings on ddc B 197590 197590 0 0 PPAK G 2024-11-20 0 304.2 FAR A01844608 2024-11-20 08:52:42 B 0 0 SP G 2024-11-20 0 304.2 FAR A01844609 2024-11-20 08:52:42 B 0 0 KM G 2024-11-20 0 304.2 FAR A01844610 2024-11-20 08:52:42 B 0 0 BL G 2024-11-20 0 304.2 FAR A01844611 2024-11-20 08:52:42 B
