Plastics, fast fashion, and… chicken bones? Scientists predict these will be the defining fossils of our time, marking humanity’s impact on Earth for millions of years. In this episode of Echoing Green Earth, we explore the concept of technofossils, how our waste is shaping the planet’s geological record, and what we can do to change the story. Can we rethink our consumption habits and leave a more regenerative legacy? Join us as we dive into the fascinating (and slightly unsettling) future of human-made fossils.
