But the Anthropocene \u2014 the proposed geological epoch shaped by us humans \u2014 is showing more and more cracks. Multiple global crises, such as the Covid-19 pandemic, climate change, food insecurity, financial crises, and conflicts have started to occur simultaneously in something which scientists refer to as a polycrisis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHumans are incredibly creative as a species. We are able to innovate and adapt to many circumstances and can cooperate on surprisingly large scales. But these capabilities turn out to have unintentional consequences. Simply speaking, you could say that the human species has been too successful and, in some ways, too smart for its own future good,\u201d says <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stockholmresilience.org\/meet-our-team\/staff\/2017-02-02-sogaard-jorgensen.html\">Peter S\u00f8gaard J\u00f8rgensen<\/a>, a researcher at the Centre and at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gedb.se\/\">Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences Global Economic Dynamics and the Biosphere programme<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kva.se\/en\/the-anthropocene-laboratory\/\">Anthropocene laboratory<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-EvolutionoftheAnthropocene\">Evolution of the Anthropocene<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>He is the lead author of a new landmark study published today as part of a larger assessment in the journal Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B. The assessment gathers insights from a wide range of different scientific disciplines across the natural and social sciences and humanities, to understand how the Anthropocene evolved and how global sustainability can continue to evolve in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Just like many insects are attracted by light, an evolutionary reflex that can get them killed in the modern world, humankind is at risk of responding to new phenomena in harmful ways.<\/p>\n<cite>Centre researcher Peter S\u00f8gaard J\u00f8rgensen<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new study shows how humanity could get stuck in \u201cevolutionary traps\u201d \u2014 dead ends that occur from initially successful innovations. In a first scoping effort, they identify 14 of these, including the simplification of agriculture, economic growth that does not deliver benefits for humans or the environment, the instability of global cooperation, climate tipping points, and artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEvolutionary traps are a well-known concept in the animal world. Just like many insects are attracted by light, an evolutionary reflex that can get them killed in the modern world, humankind is at risk of responding to new phenomena in harmful ways,\u201d explains Peter S\u00f8gaard J\u00f8rgensen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The simplification of agricultural systems is an example of such a trap. Relying on a few highly productive crops such as wheat, rice, maize, and soya, has meant that calories produced have skyrocketed over the past century. But it also meant that the food system has become very vulnerable to environmental change, such as weather extremes, or new diseases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of the 14 evolutionary traps, 12 are in an advanced state, meaning that humankind is on the verge of getting stuck to a degree where it becomes very difficult to get out. What\u2019s more, societies are continuing to move in the wrong direction in 10 of these 14. Alarmingly, these evolutionary traps tend to reinforce each other. If societies get stuck in one dead end, they are more likely to get stuck in others as well. The two dead ends that currently are less advanced are the autonomy of technology \u2013 AI and robotics \u2013 and a loss of social capital through digitalization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-Humanityisnotdoomed\">Humanity is not doomed<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The new assessment also looks into why societies struggle so hard to move out of these traps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe evolutionary forces that created the Anthropocene do not work well at the global level. In today\u2019s global systems, social and environmental problems grow in places that seem distant to the societies that could prevent them. Also, addressing them often requires global collaboration on a scale that many evolutionary forces often do not align well with,\u201d says Centre researcher and co-author <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stockholmresilience.org\/meet-our-team\/staff\/2013-10-23-wang-erlandsson.html\">Lan Wang-Erlandsson<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This does not mean that humanity is doomed to fail, argue the researchers. But we must start to transform our societies actively. So far, the Anthropocene has to a large extent been an unconscious byproduct of other evolutionary processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s time for humans to become aware of the new reality and to collectively move where we want to as a species. We have the capability to do that and are already seeing signs of such movements. Our creativity, and our power to innovate and collaborate equip us with the perfect tools to actively design our future. We can break out of dead ends and business-as-usual, but for that, we must nurture the capacity for collective human agency and design settings where it can flourish,\u201d explains Peter S\u00f8gaard J\u00f8rgensen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He continues: \u201cA very simple thing that everybody can do is to engage more in nature and society while also learning about both the positive and negative global consequences of our own local actions. There\u2019s nothing better than exposing yourself to what needs protecting.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a
