We live on a wild planet, a wobbly, erupting, ocean-sloshed orb that careens around a giant thermonuclear explosion in the void. Big rocks whiz by overhead, and here on the Earth’s surface, whole continents crash together, rip apart, and occasionally turn inside out, killing nearly everything. Our planet is fickle. When the unseen tug of celestial bodies points Earth toward a new North Star, for instance, the shift in sunlight can dry up the Sahara, or fill it with hippopotamuses. Of more immediate interest today, a variation in the composition of the Earth’s atmo ....

While Ruddiman’s hypothesis has engendered debate, a recent interglacial-ice age study and interdisciplinary archaeological investigations add nuanced support to Ruddiman’s effort and illuminate how humans have impacted the biosphere over thousands of years. In an interesting twist to this debate, these recent land clearing studies offer a clarifying, long-term context for natural solutions for the climate crises by highlighting the Earth’s regrowth potential. ....

I strive for idleness. My best ideas come to me not from hard work but from being unfocused, just lolling around.
My creative life, such as it is, coincides with what Mark Taylor tells us in “Idleness Waiting Grace”: “Many of the most important thoughts are unintentional – they can be neither solicited nor cajoled but have a rhythm of their own, creeping up, arriving, and leaving when we least expect them.” ....
