Hiding From Ourselves: Muzzling Science In The Age Of Misinformation (Part 5)

We can be so focused on the details of the battle over science that sometimes we forget to pull back and look at the story that it has really painted for us. In this last episode of the Hiding From Ourselves series we take an honest look at what the scientific evidence is showing us about our impact on the world - and this goes far beyond mere climate change. The main source used for this episode is the book The Sixth Extinction by Elizabeth Kolbert where she truly took the time to listen to experts from a variety of areas to paint a picture on the true impact of humans on the planet. In this episode we explore the Earth's five previous mass extinctions and compare the current 6th mass extinction and look at what makes them similar and different. The purpose of this episode is to acknowledge a reality that is so often avoided, downplayed, and obscured that many people don't even realize how far we've already changed the planet.
