This Brian Fagan keynote speech is an engaging discussion about the constantly increasing temperature experienced on the planet Earth.
The speaker, a author and Professor of Anthropology at the University of California, tells the tale of the world as it was 1,000 years in the past in an effort to explain the importance that understanding the past has on protecting the future.
While many scientists and environmental activists focus on researching the impact that humans have had on climate change, this speech instead explores naturally occurring climate invariability. By taking cues from the patterns of weather that previous generations have experienced, the Medieval Warming period for example, the potential to overcome obstacles associated with either excessive drought or increased rainfall can be addressed.
While human interactions with nature are important to understand, the speaker urges people to remember that historical events in nature also need to be explored.
