Thanks for sharing the compiled list, Elizabeth, it will be useful to me.

Just noting, it's surprising how few contributions by women and non-white folks are listed...

Happy break,

JP

Many thanks to all who responded to my query with so much exciting reading for my students!

I posed the same query to the AESS list, and have pasted below the synthesized list of recommendations I received (in no particular order), and attached my syllabus to this email.

Happy holidays!

/Rambunctious Garden/ or something else from the re-wilding movement would be great...

Here is a link to a very good article in the Guardian _https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/may/30/anthropocene-epoch-have-we-entered-a-new-phase-of-planetary-history_

Erle Ellis' little book /Anthropocene: A Very Short Introduction/ (Oxford Press) is very inexpensive and very good.

Liu, J. et al. Systems integration for global sustainability. /Science /*347*, 1258832 (2015).

(Liu's work on telecoupling is really important)

Lastly, there is a website I built to accompany my class that you may find useful https://theanthropocenedashboard.com <https://theanthropocenedashboard.com/>

/Learning to Die in the Anthropocene/, by Roy Scranton

Dahr Jamail's /The End of Ice/

  * while neither new nor per se ecologically oriented I find it
    worthwhile entertaining Kwame Anthony Appiah's "Honor Code"
    (2010), i.e. applying his concept of "moral revolutions" to the
    climate crisis, the inacceptability of burning fossil fuels as a
    prospective societal driver of decarbonization..

  * I've been wondering whether Mark Lynas might come around to
    revisit and update his "Six Degrees" (2007) in view of recent IPCC
    reports and, indeed, special reports (apparently not yet...)

  * a more obvious, albeit less "catchy" read could be Oran Young's
    attempt to invoke "social capital for the Anthropocene" (Governing
    complex systems, 2017)
