Environmental Conservation is one of the longest-standing[citation needed] interdisciplinary environmental science journals, being established in 1974.[citation needed] It includes peer-reviewed research papers, reports, comments and subject reviews addressing environmental natural and social science, and environmental policy and practice, informed by rigorous studies at local to global scales. The journal's scope is deliberately broad due to its specifically interdisciplinary remit, and includes issues in human institutions, ecosystem change, resource use, terrestrial biomes, aquatic and marine systems, and coastal and land use management. Papers selected as Editor's Choice are made freely available online.
The Journal is owned by the Foundation for Environmental Conservation (FEC)[1]. The Foundation for Environmental Conservation was founded by Professor Nicholas Polunin [2] [3] [4] with assistance from IUCN and World Wide Fund for Nature. The Foundation started unofficially about 1972, following the 1st International Conference on Environmental Future[5], with the planning of what became the quarterly journal Environmental Conservation. As founding editor in 1968 of the journal Biological Conservation (journal)[6], Polunin had quickly realised that there was need for a separate journal to accommodate the submissions that focused on wider environmental concerns. With this holistic perspective in mind, Environmental Conservation started publication in 1974 with Polunin as Editor and the Foundation taking ownership.
His son, Professor Nicholas V.C. Polunin[7] took on the editorship of the journal in 1995 and, upon his father Nicholas Polunin’s death in 1997, the leadership of the Foundation.
