Sam and Will meet up to discuss events at day 2 of the EGU General Assembly; of particular interest was the session on “The Role of Geoscientists in Public Policy”, where a panel including representatives from the Parliamentary Office of Science and Technology (POST) discussed the role of geosciences and public policy.
Also discussed is the potential creation of a new geological era: the Anthropocene. Has mankind been responsible for creating this, and where is it most evident?
