The moon may enter a new geological period thanks to human activity

Some evolutionist think that humanity’s influence on the moon is so great that we should define a new geological epoch, just as we are doing on Earth with the creation of the Anthropocene, researchers argue. We should also create lunar “national parks” to preserve areas for scientific study, they say.

“The Anthropocene is the name given to the epoch in which humans began having a significant impact on Earth’s geology and ecosystems. The definition is still being agreed upon, but most researchers suggest Earth entered this period in 1950, marked by the presence of plutonium isotopes from nuclear weapons tests in sediment at the bottom of a relatively untouched lake in Canada.”

Some researchers think that the so.called Anthropocene definition says that it began long before 1956, “marked by plutonium isotopes from nuclear weapons fallout in the sediments of Crawford Lake in Canada.” 

They say that mankind took care of the planet way before the 1950s, so the decision to start at that time was fakse - and it is unscientific and harmful, as it only speaks of  planetary disruption cause by climate change,
