Our mental health is linked to our environment

Abstract

We are living in a geologic epoch informally known as the “Anthropocene”. Scientists from the Anthropocene Working Group will meet later this year to consider the evidence before arriving at a formal decision about the epoch’s name. What is being discussed and evaluated, is the degree to which human (anthropos) activity has been the dominant influence on climate and the environment.
