On the other hand, Environmental Humanities, integrating perspectives from history, geography, literature, philosophy, arts, psychology, sociology and other fields — provides a means to study the roles of human perception and agency in the face of global climate change and environmental challenges of Anthropocene. In this context, the paper explores new interdisciplinary approaches on the education about the mountain and the risk reduction through new technologies and neogeography.
