Something New Under the Sun: An Environmental History of the Twentieth-Century World by J. R. McNeill is a global environmental history that examines how human activity transformed the planet during the twentieth century. Rather than treating environmental change as a side effect of political or economic history, McNeill places it at the center of modern world history. The book argues that earlier societies altered landscapes, forests, soils, and water systems, but the twentieth century produced changes of a different scale and intensity. Fossil fuel energy, industrial production, population growth, mechanized agriculture, military competition, and global markets combined to reshape air, water, land, and living systems. Written for scholars, students, and informed general readers, the book is analytical rather than polemical. Its purpose is not to offer a simple environmental warning, but to explain how modern institutions and technologies created unprecedented ecological consequences across the world.
