At its most fundamental level, environmental historians explore the changing relations between people and nature. Such a broad definition can be more of a hindrance than a help, however. So let's be more specific. Environmental historians study how people have lived in the natural systems of the planet, and how they have perceived nature and reshaped it to suit their own idea of good living. More than this, the field of environmental history encompasses the investigation of how nature, once changed, requires people to reshape their cultures, economies, and politics to meet new realities. As we'll see in the pages that follow, such processes are not without social friction and unrest. People in history have battled mightily, and often, over what constitutes the best way of living in nature. As a field of study, environmental history has been around for more than a generation. To many, it is most familiar as the history of the environmental movement. Obviously, the kinds of relations and processes I am discussing here go far beyond that, but, to be sure, the history of environmental reform and politics are central to the field."-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 00 $g Machine generated contents note: $t California Greenhouse Gas Emissions, 2000-2017 / $t "The Pristine Myth: The Landscape of the Americas in 1492" -- $t Documents / $r Ben J.
