This week I had the chance to chat with NPR’s Rebecca Hersher about the latest news coming out of the Anthropocene Working Group in which the golden spike for the Anthropocene epoch was announced. You can hear the story, which aired on NPR’s Morning Edition, here.
I'm a cultural and environmental anthropologist with interests in biodiversity management and smallholder agriculture in rural Amazonia. I've conducted research on agrobiodiversity management, anthropogenic soils, and community-based conservation. Currently, I'm also interested in the ways that farmers rely upon social networks, local ecological knowledge, and agrobiodiversity management to contend with the uncertainties of global climate change.
