Eschatons

Our transition out of an old worldview that no longer serves humanity and is in fact detrimental to many other species is just one of several endings or eschatons (from the Greek eschatos, meaning “last”) that are either occurring presently or will be occurring in the near future. The most major of these eschatons involves the 65-million-year Cenozoic era, which began with the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction event that decimated the dinosaurs and is now closing with another mass extinction event. Given that the primary evolutionary force is now the human, renowned biologist E.O. Wilson has dubbed the emerging era the “Anthropocene,” while cosmologists Thomas Berry and Brian Swimme have given it a much more hopeful name: the “Ecozoic” era.
