The Prime Meridian newsletter is published by the Ecospheres Project, a research and media collaboration.
This newsletter looks at the cycle of the seasons in South East England and looks out from the Prime Meridian into the global environment. It steps back to look at the Earth in its astronomical context.
Environmentalists talk of the “Climate Crisis,” but we must look beyond climate alone and emphasise that the threat caused by human activity and harm to the Earth’s ecosphere involves numerous factors, all of which interact with each other in a complex way. This is why we have introduced the phrase “Earth Crisis” and we ask policy-makers, politicians, academics, journalists and campaigners to adopt this phrase, which reminds us of the realitiies of the problem that our species is facing.
We pursue also the search for other habitable worlds. This is an area of research in which the editors have been active. It promises to open new vistas in our understanding of how our living Earth belongs in the larger picture. At the same time, as space probes head to other worlds in a search for life, we assert the moral duty of space exploration to inflict no harm on life elsewhere from human impact.
