This project intends to examine the trajectory of environmental ideas and practices between India and Australia between 1788 and 1901. At this time, India and the Australian colonies served as important laboratories for environmental ideas and practices. Examining colonial Australia in terms of these environmental connections may broaden perspectives on Australian history and allow us to reassess the development of colonial understandings of the Australian environment. The project aims to examine how people have understood and adapted to changing natural and human systems and to illuminate the ways in which the Australian environment continues to bear the legacies of empire.

该项目旨在研究1788年至1901年间印度和澳大利亚之间的环境思想和实践轨迹。当时，印度和澳大利亚殖民地是环境思想和实践的重要实验室。从这些环境联系的角度考察殖民地时期的澳大利亚，可以拓宽对澳大利亚历史的认识，并使我们能够重新评估殖民地时期对澳大利亚环境的理解。该项目旨在研究人们如何理解和适应不断变化的自然和人类系统，并阐明澳大利亚环境继续承受帝国遗产的方式。
