12,000 Years of Humans Altering Earth with Dr. Jacquelyn Gill

from Factually! with Adam Conover

This week paleo-ecologist Dr. Jacquelyn Gill is on the show to talk about the surprisingly strong effect humans have had on nature for thousands and thousands of years, and how knowing this changes our relationship with the natural world.
