ASEH has issued a statement about the closure of the EPA Museum. Read it here: ASEH Statement on EPA Museum

Welcome to ASEH

The American Society for Environmental History encourages scholarship on the interactions between humans and the natural world (or among humans and non-humans) through time. Membership of the Society is markedly interdisciplinary and international, and the work of ASEH members ranges across the ages, from crucial concerns of the present to the farthest reaches of human time.


- Nancy Jacobs
ASEH President
