The following pieces illustrate human dominance over Earth’s systems of water, land and air. Through case studies we explore the effects of the Anthropocene on non-humans: oil spills, honey bee colony collapse, sea lion starvation, river giants, introduction of the “grizzlar” and deforestation of the Amazon Rainforest. Our pieces are meant to provoke thought and explicitly illustrate humans true impact on the Earth. Welcome to the Anthropocene.
