Researchers demand transparency over Anthropocene rejection
Original: Science or strategy? Researchers call for transparency over the Anthropocene rejection
A group of researchers is calling for openness about how the scientific establishment rejected the formal designation of the Anthropocene as a geological epoch. They question whether the decision rested purely on scientific grounds or was influenced by strategic considerations within the geology community. The debate has reignited discussion over how major classification decisions are made and who gets to decide when human impact defines a new chapter in Earth's history.
Why now: The controversial rejection of the Anthropocene epoch proposal has prompted researchers to publicly question the transparency of the decision-making process.
