History of Environmental Movement Timelines

Part of this week's class focus includes addressing the four "antagonisms" that Robert Cox mentions in Chapter 2 of Environmental Communication and the Public Sphere.

I was preparing for class and thinking about how to help us think through the history of environmentalism in America, so I did what any good teacher would do.  I Googled it.  I didn't find anything that I love.

Here are a couple of different versions of environmental movement timelines.  Of these, the Wildglobe one seems to be the best combination of thorough and presentable.  The Environmental History Timeline, from a professor at Radford, is the most interactive and gives a nice overview (but isn't particularly sharp or detailed).

A really fine Environmental Communication Project might be for someone with some technical skills to take on the production of a more presentable and useful environmental timeline.  Maybe that person is you...
