Four-and-a-half billion years ago, Planet Earth was formed from a vast spinning nebula of cosmic dust. Within the next hundred years, human life on swathes of the earth's surface will also end, in a haze of heat, drought and, again, dust. Dust is the legacy of twentieth-century progress and a profound threat to life in the twenty-first. The story of the modern world in a trillion particles.
