Humans have become the dominant force shaping the planet, from climate change to species extinction. Harari concludes by exploring the Anthropocene, the era of human impact, and whether our species can reconcile technological progress with ecological sustainability for the future.


A podcast series based on Yuval Noah Harari’s books offers an exciting opportunity to dive into the profound themes he explores. This six-episode outline will focus on Harari’s first three major works: Sapiens, Homo Deus, and 21 Lessons for the 21st Century. Each episode will cover core concepts, insightful analysis, and how these ideas relate to our world today.

In this episode, we reflect on humanity’s impact and explore whether technological progress can coexist with ecological responsibility. Join us as we look ahead—what kind of future are we creating for our planet?
