The Earth comes from the Holocene geological epoch

The news that would end the current geological period, the Holocene, began 11,700 years ago, it comes from British scholars and is designed to make obsolete any climate agreement and, if included in the right measure, to cause a major overhaul in the social of the world. The reasons for the end of the geological era are present to detect all in human behavior and in the excessive human presence on the planet, subjected to a great stress because of excessive spread of pollution. The new geological era in which we would have entered has not yet been given a name, but the environmental characteristics are the same as when the land passage to the Pleistocene, in fact, the Holocene, a situation characterized by glaciations, but also by deep differences in temperature capable of generating a global warming more important, as is happening today. The fact that all of humanity has developed within Holocene, making it even more relevant to its end, opening great unknowns about its future. What appears is a need for a profound transformation of relations of production and in the procedures, which in numbers and that the measurement of gross domestic product to quantify the success of a nation takes on a dangerous, if connected to the environmental destruction due to ' increase industrialization, which took place without the necessary limits, able to prevent the profound climatic deterioration. This news crosses the immediate emergencies, made of natural disasters and the increase in dangerous diseases, which must be placed only as contingent causes and forerunners of a future far worse. The current situation is deeply conditioned by the rise in temperature that remains the central point on which to act, but the time limit within which to intervene, they have set themselves the representatives of the nations, they appear too late and still seem a partial solution to a problem which invests the social sphere and the organization of production and finance globally. We must review the projects in the short and medium term to embrace a philosophy of programming able to plan on time spans also based on centuries, to start a phase can reverse the transformation of the planet. Of course for this we need a unity of purpose that goes beyond borders and national interests and not be seen as a mere will environmentalist, but as a will to survive, before and after conservation. In this framework a social structures put forward are inadequate to manage a process of this news; the goal should be to not be invested, in a few generations, from a situation of extreme emergency able to endanger the survival of the human race. At the basis of this review should be a social redistribution of total income based on a division can deal first natural emergencies such as weather disasters and famine, so that oversight of all areas of the planet in a functional the preservation of the natural environment and then so as to allow the maintenance of conditions designed to stem the deterioration of the planet, from which to launch a virtuous cycle of regeneration. It is clear that much of the industrial structure should be destroyed, except to be converted in the protection of the planet, it does not mean inaugurate an era of poverty, but only consumption implemented through different productions based on criteria totally opposed to the current. A recovery in agriculture carried out in a cyclic and non-intensive, as well as livestock and use a different, more intelligent, of future technology, not based on the criteria of maximum productivity, could form the bases for a different economy able to ensure the preservation of the environment. Of course without a supranational authority with adequate powers of sovereignty it is impossible to break the ostracism that big business and industry dictate through conflict state, departing from and arriving diplomatic disputes, including through religious wars, the confrontations. At this stage the world is busy in issues, which although very important, are divisive and the special interests of nations not allow a visual list of impending danger even greater than at present, or, perhaps, the current ones are only the actual measurement and Actual short-sightedness of those in power. At all levels.
