Podcast appearances and mentions of jan zalasiewicz

En dag vil historien om menneskeheden være skrevet i sten. I sin bog ‘The Earth After Us' spørger den britiske geolog Jan Zalasiewicz ind til, hvad nysgerrige væsner millioner af år fra nu vil finde, når de begynder at grave i jordlagene efter tegn på hedengangne civilisationer. Men hvordan vil mindet om menneskeheden tage sig ud, når vi ikke længere blot er en geologisk kraft – men faktisk geologi, indlejret i Jordens skorpe? Vil fremtidige forskere være i stand til, som vi har gjort med dinosaurerne, at rekonstruere vores kroppe – og hvad med vores kulturer og sprog? Og vil en anden art – en abe, måske, eller ligefrem en forvokset, opretgående rotte, som Zalasiewicz er kendt for at overveje – kunne udvikle evner, der gør den i stand til at træde i vores sted? Hvis vi gerne vil efterlade et godt indtryk af os selv til fremtidens geologer, skal vi til at overveje, hvor mange biler, mikrobølgeovne og plastikkopper vi efterlader som fossiler. For de aftryk, vi sætter nu, vil kunne aflæses i Jordens geologi millioner af år fra nu.

Om cirka 250 millioner år vil klodens landmasser udgøres af et Pangæa Ultima – et superkontinent, der vil gøre det muligt at rejse fra det sydlige Argentina til det nordøstlige Rusland helt uden at booke færge- eller flybilletter. Hvis altså ikke der var en gigantisk ørken med voldsom vulkanaktivitet og en årlig gennemsnitstemperatur på 40 grader i vejen. Pangæa Ultima ser ikke ud til at være et sted for mennesker. Eller særligt mange andre pattedyr, for den sags skyld. Men hvordan forholder vi os til geologiens ufattelige tidsskalaer og til visheden om, at Jorden en dag bliver ubeboelig? Er der håb for, at mennesket kan tilpasse sig – som Fremen-folket på ørkenplaneten Arrakis i sci-fi-romanen 'Dune'? Eller skal vi finde et andet sted at bo? Og hvordan ser mennesket overhovedet ud til den tid? Tag de spekulative fremtidsbriller på og dyk ned i de mange spørgsmål med et stjernepanel bestående af kunstner Katie Paterson, geolog Jan Zalasiewicz og biolog Rob Dunn, som hver især arbejder med Jordens dybe tid. Samtalen modereres af journalist Peter Stanners.

What will be left of human civilisation in the geological record 100 million years hence? Justin Rowlatt speaks to the geologist Jan Zalasiewicz of Leicester University in an extended interview, speculating on the durability of the human legacy. We may take pride in our cathedrals, technologies and feats of engineering. But what strange fragments will survive long enough for aliens visiting our planet in the distant future to discover? And will it be enough for those future geologists to figure out what caused the mass extinction we will leave behind in the fossil record? This is an extended version of an interview recorded for Justin's Geochemical History of Life on Earth, also available on the BBC World Service. Producer: Laurence Knight (Photo: Skull fossil artwork from the Modern Fossils collection by Christopher Locke. Credit: Christopher Locke/Heartless Machine)

Could human engineering stabilise the Earth's climate and chemistry in the long term? Tim Lenton of Exeter University explains why the Gaia hypothesis is the key to understanding the future of life on Earth. But what about life beyond Earth? Justin Rowlatt speaks to astronomer Lisa Kaltenegger - a hunter and explorer of planets outside our solar system - and to the science fiction author David Brin. Plus paleobiologist Jan Zalasiewicz describes what might remain of human civilisation in the geological record 100 million years hence.

Critical Zones | Streamingfestival The exhibition »Critical Zones – Observatories for Earthly Politics« is about the critical situation of the Earth. Due to the Coronavirus it is also taking place at a critical time. A new Earth policy also requires a new exhibition policy: We are broadcasting! On May 22, 2020 the exhibition opened with a Streaming Festival lasting several days, which spanned the weekend of May 22–24, 2020. The program consisted of streamed guided tours through the virtual spaces as well as through the real, but not publicly accessible exhibition, and will include interviews and lectures. /// Die Ausstellung »Critical Zones – Horizonte einer neuen Erdpolitik« über die kritische Situation der Erde fällt durch die Corona-Krise in eine kritische Zeit. Eine neue Erdpolitik verlangt auch eine neue Ausstellungspolitik: Wir gehen auf Sendung! Am 22. Mai 2020 eröffnete die Ausstellung mit einem mehrtägigen Streaming-Festival, das das Wochenende vom 22.–24.05.2020 umspannte. Das Programm bestand aus gestreamten Führungen durch den virtuellen Raum und durch die reale, jedoch nicht öffentlich-zugängliche Ausstellung sowie Interviews, Filmscreenings und Vorträgen.

What do we know about the Earth's ancient climate, and how do we know it? What can it tell us about its – and our – possible future? Leicester professor… Read More Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Jan Zalasiewicz, Professor of Palaeobiology at Leicester University, talks to Jim al-Khalili about the Anthropocene, the concept that humans now drive much geology on the earth. He's one of the leading lights in the community of scientists who are working to get the Anthropocene, the Age of Man, recognised. They discuss the controversy about the date of when it began- some say it was a thousand years ago, or the Industrial revolution, others that it was the Second World War, and yet others that it's as recent as the 1960s. It all turns on finding the Golden Spike, a layer in rock strata above which the geology changes. Jan Zalasiewicz began his career as a traditional geologist studying rocks 500 million years old in Welsh border. After years out in the field mapping the landscape for the British Geological Survey he moved into academia at Leicester University.

Big news this week, friends, it turns out we're living in the Anthropocene after all. The Anthropocene Working Group (AWG) of the International Union of Geological Sciences released its report at the International Geological Congress in Cape Town that we have left the Holocene behind. Cymene and Dominic find themselves more melancholy than they expected to be about this. But fortunately we're able to talk it over (12:50) with Jan Zalasiewicz, Professor of Paleobiology at the University of Leicester, author of the marvelous The Planet in a Pebble (Oxford, 2010), and the Chair of the AWG. Jan walks us through the Working Group's process of investigation, the forms of evidence that mattered to them and the ensuing debate over whether to make the Anthropocene a new geological time unit. We discuss the early history of climate science, the origin of the Anthropocene concept, what skeptics of the concept are thinking, and the study of deep time as a labor of love that may be able to help us all with the transition to a new sense of time. Is the Anthropocene an age or an epoch, when exactly did it begin, what are its key markers? What is the “golden spike” we are now hearing about? Even if we can't make anyone feel better about the Anthropocene, we can at least answer some of your questions about it :)

Our guest today is Mark Williams who is a professor of paleobiology at the University of Leicester. He's the co-author, along with Jan Zalasiewicz of The Goldilocks Planet: The 4 billion year story of Earth's Climate and has published several peer reviewed papers on paleobiology, paleoenvironments and paleoclimates in conjunction with other researchers including his latest ‘The Anthropocene Biosphere' which explores the impact of humans from a geological perspective on the biosphere. It also looks at how humans are potentially driving a sixth mass extinction and this will be the topic of our discussion today.

What can a pebble tell us about the history of the earth? And, what are the geological tools that can unravel this mystery? On this program, Jan Zalasiewicz discussed the planet in a pebble.

Today’s holiday reading selector is Jan Zalasiewicz, who teaches geology at Leicester University. He was a guest on the very first Blackwell Online podcast, in which he told me about his book The World after Us. You can listen to the interview here. I’m hoping to interview him again this autumn when his new book, The Planet in a Pebble, appears. Here is his summer readiing recommendation: Holidays! It’s off to the beach or café terrace or simply that rickety deckchair in the weed-strewn garden. Now – what to pack to read? Nothing too demanding or (the Gods forbid!) improving. An adventure that rattles along with zing and charm and fun and characters you can live with. But that’s so hard to find… There are the staples, of course, that rarely disappoint: Terry Pratchett and George MacDonald Fraser and – a personal quirk, mostly from the charity bookshop, now – the early Saint stories of Leslie Charteris, admired for their style and craft by that other old dependable, P.G. Wodehouse. But more of that ilk? …

What would a race of space-travelling aliens 100 million years in the future make of the Earth? “One can imagine that they’ll be sufficiently scientifically curious to look on the world as extraordinary – because the Earth is extraordinary by comparison with all the other planets. “And then to investigate its future present, as it were, and try to work out how this future present arose and how it survived for so long. And to do that they’ll have to play the particular kind of history game that we call geology… they’ll have to become fossil detectives…” My guest this week is Jan Zalasiewicz, who is a senior lecturer in the department of geology at the University of Leicester. The first ever edition of Podularity featured a geology title, Ted Nield‘s Supercontinent, so it’s fitting that we return to that subject as the programme approaches its second birthday. In his new book, The Earth after Us, Jan decided to conduct a thought experiment on a grand scale – what would happen if you imagined applying …
