Abstract: | The author surveys the traces we will leave for peoples in the very distant future. He shows that modern civilization has created objects and landscapes with the potential to endure through deep time, including the plastic polluting the oceans, the nuclear waste entombed within the earth, and the thirty million miles of paved roads spanning the planet. This is his meditation on climate change and the Anthropocene, and an urgent search for fossils--industrial, chemical, geological--that humans are leaving behind. -- adapted from inside front dust jacket |

What will the world look like in ten thousand years—or ten million? What kinds of stories will it tell about us? In Footprints, David Farrier surveys the traces we will leave for people of the very distant future. Modern civilization has created objects and landscapes with the potential to endure through deep time, including the plastic polluting the oceans, the nuclear waste entombed within the earth, and the thirty million miles of paved roads spanning the planet. Our carbon could linger in the atmosphere for a hundred thousand years, and the remains of our cities will persist millions of years from now as a layer in the rock. These future fossils have the potential to reveal much about how we lived in the twenty-first century. Crossing the boundaries of literature, art, and sci ence, Footprints is a profound meditation on climate change and the Anthropocene, and an urgent search for the fossils—industrial, chemical, geological—that humans are leaving behind. Traveling from the Baltic Sea to the Great Barrier Reef, and from an ice core lab oratory in Tasmania to Shanghai, one of the world’s biggest cities, Farrier describes a planet that is changing rapidly, with consequences beyond the scope of human understanding. How do we want to be remembered in the myths and stories of our distant descendants? As much a message of hope as a warning, Footprints will change not only how you think about the future but also how you see the world today.
