17. The Golden Spike

Uncharted with Hannah Fry

At a conference in Mexico, one scientistโ€™s outburst launches a global quest.

Hannah Fry follows a group of researchers on the hunt for a โ€˜golden spikeโ€™: the boundary, marking a shift into a dramatic new geological period dominated, not by volcanoes and asteroids, but the influence of humans.

From plastics and concrete to nuclear fallout, the data they uncover reveals a planet profoundly changed. But can these scientists persuade their colleagues - and the world?
