Abstract :it takes no stretch of the imagination to see that the human species is now an agenl of change of geologic proportions. We literally move mountains to mine the earth`s minerals, redirect rivers to bui Id cities in the desert, torch forests to make way for crops and catıle, and alter the chemistry of the atmosphere in disposing of our wastes. At humanity`s hand, the earth is undergoing a profound transformatian - one with consequences we cannot fully grasp.1
