His current research focuses on the study of environmental history, fossil fuels, and controversies surrounding natural resource extraction. “His most recent book project, Oceans of Oil: The Epic Struggles Over Offshore Drilling in the United States, examines the legal, political, and policy conflicts over offshore oil development from the 1920s through the Deepwater Horizon disaster.” Please join us for his keynote speech and refreshments, scheduled for the evening of March 4th which is entitled “Shell Oil’s Deepwater Mission to Mars."
