The Anthropocene is a joke

The link below goes to a very interesting and, I think, true article published in The Atlantic last year.

Indeed, it's possible that our entire modern civilization will be (almost) invisible in the geological record of the distant future - even if we do screw up the climate. Reminds me of some of John Michael Greer's essays. As a side note, any religion that can't accomodate deep time probably isn't true...
