In preparation for this term’s visiting lecture, we will be reading two of Jeffrey Insko’s recent contributions to the field of energy humanities--a socially, culturally, and historically attentive approach to understanding our shared dependence on fossil fuels. Read and come prepared to discuss one recent academic article by Insko, “On Dismantling: A Report from Michigan”, as well as one of his public-facing essays, “How to Dream Beyond Oil”.

Whether you consider yourself a seasoned Environmental Humanist or you are simply curious about the field, we hope to see old faces and meet some new ones soon. See below for registration links and event descriptions, and please circulate freely!
