The term anthropocene is not an exaggeration. We are changing everything on a planetary scale: light pollution, sound levels, chemical and gas abundances etc.

The term anthropocene is not an exaggeration. We are changing everything on a planetary scale: light pollution, sound levels, chemical and gas abundances etc. People think that if something is not immediately fatal its somehow ok. That the tragedy of our reptile brain wiring. In reality all sorts of impacts will accumulate only imperceptibly slowly. We might be able to do something about some of them if they have clear cut causes and some easy remedy. Like the ozon hole. But its an uncertain arms race.
