Hotel Bar Sessions

Good discussion - is Anthropocene a useful term? Maybe Capitalocene works better? Maybe both have their uses. Good overview of the pros and cons of both.

There's a geological definition of Anthropocene (descriptive), which is interesting and all, but perhaps of more genuine use is it as a definition that motivates us to act to mitigate climate catastrophe (prescriptive).
