The environmental impact of the ancient Maya, and subsequent ecological recovery following the Terminal Classic decline, have been the key foci of research into socio-ecological interactions in the Yucatán peninsula. These foci, however, belie the co... Read More about A Tale of Maize, Palm, and Pine: Changing Socio-Ecological Interactions from Pre-Classic Maya to the Present Day in Belize.

Assessing the forced labor risk of US fruit and vegetable commodities (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Tichenor Blackstone, N., Benoit Norris, C., Robbins, T., Jackson, B., & Sparks, J. L. D. (2020, October). Assessing the forced labor risk of US fruit and vegetable commodities. Presented at 12th International Conference on Life Cycle Assessment of Food 2020 (LCA Food 2020), Berlin, Germany (online)

Studies on sustainable food consumption to date have largely focused on promoting human health within ecological limits. Much less attention has been paid to social sustainability, in part because of limited data and models. The aim of this research...
