Holocene is a geologic epoch. It started at the end of last ice age. It contains human civilization but is not human civilization. Civilization, climate, and biosphere are all separate but related things. If you want to talk about maintaining them, each one has a name, or if you want a name for all them, come up with something new.
The Holocene requires no maintenance beyond defining out the end. People are talking new epoch, Anthropocene, to include changes from global warming.
