Abstract

Defining an Anthropocene epoch from the mid-1900s allows representing human environmental impacts’ triphasic nature within the International Geological Timescale. Such an epoch captures humanity's current planetary importance, with the Holocene and Late Pleistocene representing earlier phases of intensifying impacts. This formal framework empowers science and action toward planetary stewardship.
