The Humanities and the Anthropocene: Life, Temporality, Extinction is a three-year initiative organized by Adam R. Rosenthal, Alberto Moreiras, and Teresa Vilarós-Soler, and sponsored by the Melbern G. Glasscock Center for Humanities Research under our Glasscock Research Initiatives program.

Featuring a multidisciplinary group of international collaborators, it aims to explore the global and local impacts of climate change, global warming, and environmental degradation, for both complex biological systems and human notions of time and being. Open to all, the initiative will host annual conferences, lectures, and workshops at TAMU, bringing humanistic, social, and natural scientific modes of inquiry into conversation.
