Interviews with Missouri land use and natural resource protection professionals, and other individuals related to the environment in Missouri. The records include audio cassettes, CDs, audio logs, and transcripts.
The Missouri Environment Oral History Project is a regular, on-going project conducted by the State Historical Society of Missouri. The project, which began in 1997, seeks to document the history of conservation, preservation, environmentalism, land and natural resource use in Missouri. Topics and issues addressed include [or will include] forestry, wildlife management, minerals extraction, waterways issues, and environmental politics.
The Missouri Environment Oral History Project Records consist of oral interviews on audio cassettes, CDs, audio logs and transcripts. The cassettes and CDs are arranged chronologically; the transcripts and audio logs are arranged in the same order as the cassettes. An index to the major topics found in this project follows this inventory. For more details on the contents of the collection see a Topics Index and Interview Synopses.
