How have we humans changed the environment by clearing forests, farming crops, damming rivers, inventing railways, building bombs, and other transformative activities? How have our aesthetics, values, ideologies, and knowledge shaped the ways we interact with the natural world? By comparing historical cases from Asia, Europe, and America during the past four hundred years, this course takes students onto a journey across historical space and time to observe how human relations with the environment gave birth to our modern world.
