On Unease and Discomfort About the Anthropocene

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The proposal for a formal inclusion of the Anthropocene as a new unit of the Geologic Time Scale (GTS) was rejected in part on the grounds that it would sit uncomfortably in the GTS. The durations of all GTS units tend to become shorter toward the present. The proposed Anthropocene epoch and Crawfordian age fit that trend comfortably.

Cybernetics in the Anthropocene’s Wake: Reframing Global Transformations Through the Emergent Human–Earth System

open access: yesComplexity, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The Anthropocene has been a powerful conceptual lens for exploring the coupling of humans and the Earth system. While fostering a rich transdisciplinary discourse, its grounding in bounded geological time and emphasis on disruption has often reinforced the nature–culture divide and tended toward a dystopian outlook.
