Rachel Carson Center for Environment and Society
Ninth Issue of Springs: The Rachel Carson Center Review
The RCC is delighted to announce the release of the ninth issue of Springs: The Rachel Carson Center Review.
This edition offers a dialogue on human nature and the origins of environmental degradation, taking inspiration from
tradition and Indigenous practices.
Come along as we fly over the Alps to encounter a once-extinct bird species, explore the rich history of apple cultivation in Jersey, and learn about traditional recycling practices in India.
New Virtual Exhibition: “Wetland Times”
The Environment & Society Portal team is excited to announce the release of the second virtual exhibition of 2025: “Wetland Times,” by Enaiê Mairê Azambuja, Blake Ewing, and Nicola Thomas.
The exhibition explores the dynamic temporalities of wetlands and their complex relationships—the temporal imaginaries, narratives, structures, flows, (a)synchronicities, and ruptures they contain—framed by a conceptual vocabulary that reveals the role of language in understanding wetland times and temporalities. Explore it here.

Alongside its graduate programs, the RCC hosts various externally funded projects—all contribute to the dynamic and multidisciplinary life of the center.
