"A Complex World Explained Modern humans relate to our planet and to one another in ways that may seem simple on the surface, but when examined carefully, can be mind-bogglingly complex. Turn on a light switch, place a phone call, eat a meal and you tap into a vast network of actions and consequences that connect us to the Earth and to other humans in ways both beneficial and detrimental. EarthPulse explores these global connections with vivid and informative imagery, maps, diagrams, and interactives that illuminate where we are today, how we got here, and how our actions may affect the future of life on Earth."
