Description
The Georgia Environmental Oral History project documents the forces that have shaped and are currently shaping the Georgia landscape, including such topics as environmental activism (with a focus on grassroots activism), legislation related to environmental issues, the environmental history of the Georgia coast, the interplay between conservation, industry, and tourism, the politics of "sustainability," and the relationship between environmental issues and public safety. Early interviews focus on Brunswick and Glynn County including numerous Superfund sites, the development issues surrounding St. Simons Island and Jekyll Island, and the challenges of protecting coastal marshlands.

The Georgia Environmental Oral History Project was started in 2013 via a partnership between the Russell Library and Betsy Bean. The first eight interviews (GEOH-001--GEOH-008) were recorded over a two day trip to Brunswick, Ga. in September 2013, by Russell Oral History and Media Archivists Callie Holmes and Christian Lopez. Interviews were recorded in a classroom space at the College of Coastal Georgia, except for GEOH-001, which was recorded in Ms. Poleszak's home on Jekyll Island. Betsy Bean is the primary interviewer, though occassionally Holmes and Lopez pose questions to the interviewees.
