Book excerpt: There are enormous and difficult challenges on a global scale, and we are living in a time when these problems are occurring. Sometimes people would refer to them as "wicked problems." As a result of the interconnected nature of these issues and the prevalence of value systems and points of view that are in opposition to one another, it is challenging to describe, comprehend, and find solutions to these complex and systemic challenges. In the present moment, we are confronted with a number of the most severe challenges that may be traced back to human activities that are not sustainable. We refer to this period of time as the "Anthropocene," which is a geological era that has been developed to acknowledge the tremendous influence that human activities are having on the processes and systems of the Earth. This era was established in order to acknowledge the "Anthropocene." Since the Industrial Revolution, which took place in the latter half of the eighteenth century, human activities have had a significant and far-reaching impact on the systems that make up the Earth. The climate of the Earth has been affected as a result of these activities, as has the chemistry of the land and ocean, and the biodiversity of the globe has been diminished via these activities. It is anticipated that the environmental modifications that have been brought about by human activity will have far-reaching repercussions, some of which could be catastrophic, for the entire planet and the people who live on these planets. In spite of this, the challenges are not restricted to problems pertaining to the environment. These difficulties have gotten even more intricate as a result of their connectivity with social, economic, and peace and security concerns
