[edit] Human World

This article was created by the people who invented the term, as the history shows, so it is Original Research and Vanity; it is only used by the people at the radio show, so it is too limited in scope to be encyclopedic; it is POVed in the way it describes "a profound connection;" the information it presents is both obvious and already covered in other articles, mainly Anthropocene, so it is also unecessary.

I have shortened the Human World entry and attempted to make it more neutral. It is true that, after many discussions with its Science Advisors (one of whom is Paul Crutzen), Earth & Sky invented the term Human World, and it is true that Earth & Sky posted this entry. But I would not call this Original Research or Vanity. In fact, popularizing science - creating simple concepts from more scientific ones, so that people can understand - is our job in the world as a science radio series. I would add that the words Human World are heard frequently on our radio series, which is broadcast to 6 million daily around the world (9 times daily on Voice of America, for example). Many people do hear the words Human World. They might wonder what they mean. If they searched on Wikipedia, it would be grand for them to find some explanation. Thank you.
