科学家告诉我们，地球进入了一个新纪元：人类世。我们面临的不仅仅是一场环境危机，而是一场源于人类的地质革命。在两个世纪里，我们的星球已经进入了一种数百万年来未知的状态。我们是怎么走到这一步的？这本书驳斥了一个在不知道自己在做什么的情况下扰乱地球系统的“人类物种”的便利观点，对现代性提出了一种新的描述，动摇了许多公认的观点：在所谓的“环境意识”最近的日期，关于以前对工业主义的挑战，关于消费主义的制造和能源“转型”，以及关于军队在环境破坏中的作用。通过科学和历史之间的对话，作者绘制了一种已经变得不可持续的发展模式的生态平衡表，并探索了在人类世生活和政治行为的道路。
Scientists tell us that the Earth has entered a new epoch: the Anthropocene. We are not facing simply an environmental crisis, but a geological revolution of human origin. In two centuries, our planet has tipped into a state unknown for millions of years. How did we get to this point? Refuting the convenient view of a "human species" that upset the Earth system unaware of what it was doing, this book proposes a new account of modernity that shakes up many accepted ideas: on the supposedly recent date of "environmental awareness," on previous challenges to industrialism, on the manufacture of consumerism and the energy "transition," as well as on the role of the military in environmental destruction. Through a dialogue between science and history, the authors draw an ecological balance-sheet of a developmental model that has become unsustainable, and explore paths for living and acting politically in the Anthropocene.
