Enviromental History

Environmental history is the study of how humans have interacted with the environment over time. It examines the impact of human activities on natural landscapes, ecosystems, and biodiversity, as well as how changes in the environment have influenced human societies, economies, and cultures. This field combines elements from history, ecology, and geography to understand past relationships between people and nature, shedding light on current environmental issues and informing future sustainability efforts. By exploring historical patterns, we can better grasp the social and political factors that shape our relationship with the planet today.
