Ever wondered how Earth’s epic 4.5-billion-year story shaped human civilizations? This book is a wild ride through deep time! We’ll explore how a faint young sun somehow allowed life to emerge. We’ll uncover secrets hidden in ancient rocks. We’ll witness asteroid impacts that could have wiped out everything. And we’ll see how climate change has toppled civilizations before. But it’s not all doom and gloom! We’ll also discover how humans have adapted, innovated, and built incredible societies. We’ll even journey beyond Earth to search for life among the stars.Most books about history just focus on the last few thousand years. This one goes WAY deeper, giving you a whole new perspective on humanity’s place in the grand scheme of things. We’ll connect the dots between geology, climate, culture, and even mythology. You’ll learn how ancient myths were inspired by real geological events! Plus, we’ll tackle the big questions facing us today in the Anthropocene - like how to create a sustainable future and what our responsibilities are to future generations. Get ready to expand your mind and see the world in a whole new light!
