To raise awareness about the ecological impact of human activity, Earth Day has been held every April 22nd since 1970. The campaign aims to encourage the larger structural change necessary to address the factors responsible for environmental crisis throughout the world, as well as more local practices. Recognising that the heaviest burden of environmental disaster will fall on the most vulnerable and marginalised populations before all else, the campaign also stresses the importance of including these communities in the movement and giving voice to their concerns.
A display has been arranged in the Upper Gladstone Link in Radcliffe Camera, consisting of History Faculty Library material. It addresses the past of human environmental intervention, as well as featuring current and future issues. This display also includes relevant e-resources, which can be accessed by clicking on the book cover pictures further below.
Accessing these e-resource materials will require a Single-Sign-On Login for Oxford University members. External readers will need to log in with their Bodleian accounts while using the Bodleian libraries network (either the Bodleian Libraries Wi-fi network or using the reader PCs within the library.)
