Everything under our feet, in three parts: What we shelter, what we yield, what we dispose of. The dark matter lab under a Yorkshire hill. The wood wide web and the fungal networks trading sugar between trees. Catacombs beneath Paris entered through a manhole. A blue glacial moulin in Greenland. Prehistoric handprints in a Norwegian sea cave. And the nuclear waste repository in Finland, being built to warn people who won’t speak any language we know. His question all the way down is what we are leaving behind for deep time, and the answer isn’t flattering.
