UMBC’s Erle Ellis and international team show people have shaped Earth’s ecology for 12,000 years
New research published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) shows that land use by human societies has reshaped ecology across most of Earth’s land for at least 12,000 years.
