EnvirohistoryNZAs the title suggests the blog is devoted to the environmental history of New Zealand and is run by Dr Catherine Knight, a Japanologist and environmental historian. Although New Zealand is a relatively recently settled country its environmental history is all about human impact and rapid environmental change. This warranted a web presence to bring the environmental history of New Zealand to a wider audience.

The blog is not a one-way street in terms of communication and aims to be a new forum where not just academics or researchers, but anyone who is interested in natural environment and history can exchange ideas. The site has much to offer including blog posts, random thoughts, discussion, links to research, articles, and a podcast. The blog also encourages readers to be active contributors and post comments, send in stories, photos and links to interesting websites. The blog is a great way to network with others interested in New Zealand’s environmental history.
