Bruno Latour's response to the Ecomodernist Manifesto

Philosopher, anthropologist, and sociologist, Bruno Latour's response to the Ecomodernist Manifesto. "Wake up you ecomoderns, we are in the Anthropocene, not in the Holocene, nor are we to ever reside in the enchanted dream of futurism... But then you have to answer this simple question: how do you invent the political constitution that is able to absorb the Anthropocene, namely the reaction of the earth system to our action, in a way that renders politics again comprehensible to those who are simultaneously actor, victim, accomplices and responsible for such a situation?"
