Ecohistory

Ecohistory is the study of how ecological factors, such as climate, geography, and natural resources, intersect with historical events and human societies. It examines how the environment influences social structures, economies, and cultures, and vice versa. By analyzing past interactions between humans and their surroundings, ecohistory helps us understand how historical changes—such as agriculture, urbanization, and industrialization—have shaped both the planet and our societies. This interdisciplinary approach highlights the importance of sustainable practices and awareness of our ecological impact in shaping the future.
