abstract = "This article contributes towards scholarship on teaching environmental history by analysing a series (Chernobyl, 2019) and film (Dark Waters, 2019). It argues that the immediacy of such media offer an ideal entry point into environmental history and history of science for students first studying those subjects. As well, it provides a model for how to use media in environment history.",
