The latest episode of Exploring Environmental History Podcast explores the early history of the American forestry movement in the 19th century. While the origins of forestry in the United States have been the topic of sustained interest amongst environmental and forest historians, the history of the early forestry movement itself remains neglected.

I'm looking to put together a session for the 2015 ASEH that explores the history of environmental policies governing the use of private property in metropolitan areas. This might take the form of a traditional session with two other papers or perhaps a roundtable discussion, depending on the inclinations of fellow panelists. The organizing point I had in mind, at this point, is how environmental protection was marshaled conceptually and in practice as a public good.
