Description

David Farrier explores what traces we will leave for the very deep future in Footprints. From long-lived materials like plastic and nuclear waste to the 50 million kilometres of roads spanning the planet, modern times have created numerous objects and landscapes with the potential to endure through deep time.

The book invites us to think about how we will be remembered in the myths, stories, and languages of our distant descendants. Travelling from the Baltic Sea to the Great Barrier Reef, Farrier tells a story of a world that is changing rapidly, and with long-term consequences.
