The Society for Historical Ecology

The Society for Historical Ecology is an organization focused on studying the relationships between human societies and their environments over time. It combines insights from history, archaeology, and ecology to understand how past communities interacted with nature, shaped landscapes, and adapted to changes. By examining these historical interactions, the society aims to inform contemporary environmental challenges, enhance conservation efforts, and promote sustainable practices. Members share research, collaborate on projects, and engage in discussions about the significance of historical perspectives in environmental science and policy.
