A Climate for History

A Climate for History Editor's Corner Randolph Bergstrom This special issue of The Public Historian comes to you as part of ``Explorations: Public History and Environmental Sustainability,'' in collaboration with the Public History Commons of the National Council on Public History. It joins in ``Explorations'' the digital publication Public History in a Changing Climate, edited by Cathy Stanton, available on the Public History Commons. It also carries forward the ``Sustainable Public History'' theme that was the focus of the 2014 NCPH annual meeting in Monterey, California. Along with Public History in a Changing Climate and ``Sustainable Public History,'' this special issue presents historians' work to promote public engagement and contend with the challenges of global environmental change. As you will read, ``Public History and Environmental Sustainability'' represents public history that is both formative and developed. It is formative in that it presents the work of historians ``feeling the way into new territory,'' as Cathy Stanton has aptly put it. At the same time, as the product of running discussions, working groups, critical analysis, and history practices ventured over the last several years, this is public history that has been deliberated as it has developed.
