Rachel Carson Center for Environment and Society
Sixth Issue of Springs: The Rachel Carson Center Review
The RCC is thrilled to announce the release of the sixth issue of Springs: The Rachel Carson Center Review.
This edition is a meditation on the minutiae and a potential answer to the following questions: How many generations does it take to make a meal? How do we show we care—for humans and for nonhumans alike? When we look up, is it a starry night or a sea of fog?
Join us as we cook with vulcanos, explore the Moon, and “talk about the weather.”
Relaunch of Seeing the Woods
We are thrilled to announce the relaunch of the Rachel Carson Center's blog, Seeing the Woods. It serves as a venue for RCC fellows, staff, students, and affiliates to contribute their voices to the ever-evolving conversation within the environmental humanities.
In the newest article—the third entry of Vita Lacis’ series on Russian environmental politics—the author reads between the lines of Russia’s new Climate Doctrine and describes the federation’s approach to climate change as “martket-driven, opportunistic compliance with international goals on climate action.”
New Virtual Exhibition: “Petra Kelly: Life and Legacy of a Transnational Green Activist”
The Environment & Society Portal team is excited to announce the release of the virtual exhibition “Petra Kelly: Life and Legacy of a Transnational Green Activist,” curated by Stephen Milder and Andreas Jünger.
The exhibition follows the life story of Petra Kelly—social activist, cofounder of the West German Green Party, and recipient of the Right Livelihood Award—considering her transnationalism and the way her visions and ideas have informed green politics. Explore the exhibition here.
