From the series A/12e: Anthropocene 12 Equations
Photo assemblage of a Common Tern (Sterna hirundo) paired with the exponential growth formula, exp(rt)—where exp indicates exponential growth, r represents growth rate, and t represents time. The image is inspired by The Great Acceleration, the mid-20th-century tipping point defined by an exponential surge in global industrialization, habitat loss, and ocean warming that threatens terns and other species.
