[Nhcoll-l] FW: EO Wilson article in The Economist "The World in 2014"

[Copley, Claudia RBCM:EX]

I suggest we all adopt this latest term to describe what humans are doing to the earth because it carries a negative connotation. The average person would not associate any stigma with the term "Anthropocene". Loneliness is more likely to elicit the sadness we should all feel.

Happy Festivus!
