Historic Climate Tech explores the long history of humanity's attempts to influence and control the environment. From early agricultural practices designed to manage water resources to the industrial revolution's impact on climate, this book traces the milestones of climate-related technologies that have emerged over the centuries. It highlights the successes and failures of these early efforts to shape the climate, as well as the lessons learned from past endeavors.

The book also looks at the environmental challenges that humanity has faced throughout history and how technology, from ancient irrigation systems to the first industrial machines, attempted to mitigate or adapt to those challenges. Historic Climate Tech provides a valuable perspective on how past innovations in climate management can inform and inspire future solutions for combating the modern-day climate crisis.
