Strata: Stories from Deep Time

Join us in person at the Camden Public Library for a revelatory journey through four moments in Earth's deep past, and their lessons for our future.

The epic stories of our planet's 4.54-billion-year history are written in strata--ages-old remnants of ancient seafloors, desert dunes, and riverbeds striping landscapes around the world. In this original debut work, science writer Laura Poppick decodes strata to lead us on a journey through four global transformations that made our lives on Earth possible: the first accumulations of oxygen in the atmosphere; the deep freezes of "Snowball Earth"; the rise of mud on land and accompanying proliferation of plants; and the dinosaurs' reign on a hothouse planet.
