The Anthropocene is a proposed geological epoch characterized by unprecedented human impacts on Earth's natural environments. The resulting societal challenges - climate change, biodiversity loss, pandemics - are expected to intensify as the human population and standard of living continue to grow. This course draws upon environmental and geographical thought to review the multi-dimensional issues we all face when living in the Anthropocene.
