“Sustainable human-environment interactions”
The impact of humans on their environment has its roots in prehistory. Humans have been experimenting with natural resources for millennia, often during periods of sharp climate change. By examining human-environment interactions throughout time and assess current human impact on the environment, we can plan strategies for the development of sustainable economies for the future, with a focus on marginal and rural areas.
