About the Book
This collection of 19 essays delves into the intersections of forestry and environmental change in the former colonies of the British Empire, which now form the Commonwealth of Nations. The book builds upon Richard Grove's ambitious pursuit of achieving a global synthesis in environmental history, addressing the challenges of documenting environmental transformations on a planetary scale.
By engaging with diverse perspectives from environmental historians, foresters, sustainable development practitioners, policy makers, and those concerned with climate change, this volume aims to facilitate cross-disciplinary dialogues. It provides valuable insights into the contemporary politics surrounding environmental issues and climate change, offering a deep understanding of how the past informs present global challenges. This book serves as a crucial resource for anyone interested in the evolving relationship between humanity and the environment.
