Growing public interest in environmental sustainability is a gift to historic sites and museums. It is an invitation to use our knowledge; collections; and sites to discuss how human practices and interactions with the environment in past were ndash; and were not ndash; environmentally sustainable. Being green still has a great deal to do with using less energy; buying less stuff; and recycling more; but now sustainability just as important in strategic planning; interpretation and public engagement. Environmental Sustainability at Historic Sites and Museums details how to go green at every level of your organizationWhy is this important? Because it is no longer a choice; environmental awareness as an amenity has become climate awareness as a necessity. Seas and storms threaten historic coastal communities. Flooding increasingly threatens sites near rivers. What structural precautions; collections care changes; and insurance approaches should you take for the new normal? What self-sufficiencies must you develop? What role do you have in community responses? Let environmental sustainability change the way you operate; engage the community and fulfill your mission. Let this book introduce you to the topic if yoursquo;re new to it; or take you to the next level of performance if yoursquo;ve been doing this awhile. From one of the leading experts in the sustainability practices in museums; this book explains how engaging in sustainable practices will benefit not only the planet; but also the people you serve; your programs and even your profits. To demonstrate this; Sutton provides case studies from museums at the forefront of the green movement.
