Projecting the Anthropocene
The Earth system has become increasingly destabilized, with growing
evidence that human activities are the primary cause. However, our
current financial, economic, social, political, and industrial systems are
not evolving fast enough to address the pace and scale of planetary
change. The concept of the Anthropocene (인류세, 人類世) has
provided a novel framework for debating scientific methods of sensing
these transformations, discussing more-than-human ways of inhabiting
together, and exploring arti (...)

Mississippi Mud Book of Recipes
What follows is a series of stories and recipes taken from our trip down the Mississippi. Some of these stories are recounted from others’ experiences, others are my own, but every recipe was made and (at least partially) invented by us, using our limited equipment and access to fuel, water, stable surfaces, and a roof. (...)
Anthropocene Campus Latin America 2024
The Earth is no longer the same and we need to relearn how to inhabit it. In December 2024, the first Latin American edition of the Anthropocene Campus will take place, an event that for a decade has brought together activists, artists, educators and scientists to build and share knowledge and skills for our time. For a week, we will think, dialogue, learn and feel the intellectual and material challenges of the Anthropocene in activities that address the here and now of this transformation. We (...)

Practicing (?) Environmental Justice
What is environmental justice? Is it a movement? Is it an outcome? What follows is my thought process on how environmental justice fits (or doesn’t) into bottom-up and top-down spaces; and how young people should seek to understand it. (...)

A River, Both Warm and Cool
This conflict of observational processes and ways of thinking have led to centuries of invalidation of Indigenous science, which, as mentioned many times by Ethan, has proved again and again to offer observations that put one in harmony and understanding of our world, as well as in our cosmology.

Carbon in the Anthropocene
Anthropocene is a word we commonly use today. However, its roots and true impacts on our planet are often lost when we talk about climate change. To begin examining carbon through different lenses, this module will first introduce some terminologies that are central to global conversations around climate change. By expanding on the interconnections between carbon, water, agriculture and more, this module emphasises the need to approach climate change through varied perspectives. Introducing the (...)
Mesa Contaminações: confusão das fronteiras [Campus Antropoceno Brasil]
Com o desenvolvimento histórico das ideias de indivíduo e autonomia, construímos um mundo com limites bem estabelecidos, ainda que toda entidade mantenha uma relação constitutiva com seu entorno. Em tempos de catástrofe climática, quando observamos a proliferação de efeitos locais em escala global, precisamos nos perguntar quais as conexões que se estabelecem entre a diversidade de seres, borrando fronteiras antes fortemente estabelecidas. Que tipos de contágios e contaminações povoam o horizont (...)
