Future

reusing resources and adopting developing technology is critical for improving the global environmental situation. For instance, emails instead of writing letters to pass information are commendable. In third-world countries, adopting sustainable agriculture will conserve resources for future generations. In cities, sustainable production and consumption patterns should be embraced to hinder climate change. Generally, reducing population growth and pollution is critical to a sustainable future.

History

Climate & Environment: Environmental history first emerged in the United States out of the environmental movement of the 1960s and 1970s, and much of its impetus still stems from present-day global environmental concerns. The field was founded on conservation issues but has broadened in scope to include more general social and scientific history and may deal with cities, populations, or sustainable development. As all history occurs in the natural world, environmental history tends to focus on time scales, geographic regions, or key themes. It is also a strongly multidisciplinary subject that draws widely on both the humanities and natural science.
