About This Walk

The Environment Centre, Swansea invite you to join a guided walk through Earth's 4.6 billion-year evolutionary history..... Together we will travel back in time to the start of our journey, beginning with the formation of the solar system. We'll then walk forwards in time stopping at various points along the way to listen to a narrative, exploring key events such as the formation of the Moon, the oceans, the origins of life, and mass extinction events such as that of the dinosaurs 66 million years ago, right up to the present day. This Deep Time Walk is an interactive way of grasping the vastness of Earth's 4.6 billion-year history, highlighting how humans have evolved in the blink of a geological eye. It invites participants to view the world differently, explore our deep interrelationship with the more-than-human world, and encourage positive action to address the climate and nature emergencies.
