Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

The quantity and quality of consciousness, one may say, have always been growing throughout geological times. In this respect man, in whom nervous organisation and therefore psychological powers have attained an undisputed maximum, may be considered, scientifically, as a natural centre of evolution of the primates.

French Philosopher

Simon Winchester

Nature is not evil. The world occasionally shrugs its shoulders, and people get knocked off. The earth, for geological reasons that are well known, is a fairly risky place to live. To be evil, you have to have intent. Any remarkable natural happening in which no human will is employed cannot be regarded as evil.

The deciphering of ancient scripts changed forever the way Europeans were able to imagine the story of humanity, destroying centuries of received authority about the past with repercussions as important for our understanding of time and history as the geological studies of the same period.

British Historian

Thich Nhat Hanh

Civilisations have been destroyed many times, and this civilisation is no different. It can be destroyed. We can think of time in terms of millions of years and life will resume little by little. The cosmos operates for us very urgently, but geological time is different.

Vietnamese Clergyman

Anselm Kiefer

What does the artist do? He draws connections. He ties the invisible threads between things. He dives into history, be it the history of mankind, the geological history of the Earth or the beginning and end of the manifest cosmos.

The impact of the magazine was very strong. As I said, it portrayed dinosaurs as part of the geological history, part of the story of life on earth. It struck that paleontology was the career for me.

American Scientist

James Lovelock

Geological change usually takes thousands of years to happen but we are seeing the climate changing not just in our lifetimes but also year by year.

WorldView-3 goes into the mid-infrared wavelength, allowing you to see very subtle geological differences on the sites at a 0.4-metre resolution.

I do believe that enduring geological features are important, though I don't think I can be clear about exactly why.

Mary Doria Russell

In my worldview, there are filers, and there are pilers. Filers think alphabetically. Pilers think geologically.

American Writer

In contexts discussing Earth's history or structure, 'geological' explains nature's narrative over time.

Earth's Story

'Geological' is often used in education and research related to Earth sciences.

Academic Term

Use 'geological' to be precise when referring to Earth's structure, not to describe man-made features.

Specific Vocabulary

'Geological' indicates natural Earth processes, separating it from artificial or human-caused events.

Natural Phenomena

Geological changes can be slow and not easily seen, but they shape our planet's surface.

Not Always Visible

Don't confuse 'geological' with 'geographical'; the former is about Earth's structure, the latter about location.

Distinguish from Geography

In a scientific context, 'geological' refers to methods or tools specific to geology.

Specialized Research

Geological often precedes terms that deal with hands-on research outdoors.
