This oral history offers a rare glimpse into the early days of environmental science and policy in the United States. The transcript includes interviews with leading figures in the field, including Luna Leopold, a pioneering hydrologist who helped establish the US Geological Survey's Water Resources Division; and Thomas Dunne, a geomorphologist who played a key role in shaping environmental policy at UC Berkeley. Their insights into the challenges and opportunities of this critical period in American history are both fascinating and enlightening.
