Planetary Intelligence: Societal Responses to the Anthropocene

Sir Crispin Tickell

  • Member, Board of Directors for Sustainability at ASU
  • Former British Diplomat
  • Fellow of the Oxford Martin School, Oxford University
  • Member of Oxford Martin School Advisory Council

The Anthropocene is the label for the brief geological period in which the human species has transformed – and is transforming – the surface of the Earth, land, sea, and sky. How we cope with the accumulating effects of our actions is a major issue for society and requires, above all, understanding and political leadership, global as well as national. The penalty for failure could be disasterous.

Light refreshments will be served.
