The Transition from the Biosphere to the Noösphere

Vernadsky explores how human knowledge transforms Earth’s biosphere into the “noosphere,” a new geological state driven by science and culture. He highlights how life, especially human activity, reshapes the planet through energy and innovation, from ancient fire mastery to modern technology. This dynamic interplay between life and Earth reveals a fascinating, ever-evolving story of our planet’s history and humanity’s profound impact on its future.
