Native Americans and the Environment This site, created by
cultural anthropologist Alx V. Dark, offers more than 2,500
links to documents, lesson plans, and websites relating to
Native American land rights and environmentalism. The site's
goals are to educate the public on environmental problems in
Native American communities, to explore values and historical
experiences that Native Americans bring to environmental issues,
and to promote conservation measures that respect Native
American land and resource rights. The site is divided into five
sections. The "Introduction to the Issues" consists of a
2,500-word essay by anthropologist David R. Lewis on North
American Indians and the environment in the 20th century. The
"Bibliography and Search" offers a keyword-searchable database
of more than 2,200 print and online sources covering topics like
environmental justice, conservation, traditional environmental
knowledge, traditional foods, natural resource utilization, land
and treaty rights. "Internet Resources" i
