What will the world be like ten thousand years from now? And ten million years from now? What might future civilizations say about us and our past? Whether it is plastics polluting the oceans, nuclear waste buried underground, or the 48 million kilometres of highways currently crisscrossing Earth’s surface, modern civilization has transformed natural landscapes, erected structures, and created materials capable of enduring for millions of years—indelibly marking our passage across the planet and constituting a legacy for future generations. Long after the world as we know it has vanished, these future fossils may become the final chronicle of our civilization. A highly engaging writing style renders this work of science communication exceptionally fluid, appealing, and captivating. Crossing the boundaries of science, literature, and art, Footprints portrays a planet in constant transformation and the profound consequences of our relentless march toward progress, inviting us to reconsider how we look toward the future—and, even more importantly, how we confront our present. - Footprints – In Search of Future Fossils-David Farrier-Elsinore - HAND DELIVERY at no additional cost at the physical store LEITURIA, located at Rua José Estêvão 45 A.
