Energy and environment refer to the natural status of major energies which the development of society and production rely on. For type, property, distribution and reserve of energy are key factors reflecting the human’s environmental features, so the American scholars Rifkin and Howard proposed this concept. They consider that changes of the social history are determined by the energy environment. Each specific type of the energy requires a specified technical mode, which is corresponding to specific manufacturing modes and lifestyles. When a kind of energy is exhausted, “the society must enter a new energy environment, create new technical modes and shape new social, economic and political organizations”. Further, “the environment energy defines the approximate bound for the people’s belief”, namely the world outlook.
Therefore, they think that the energy environment is a vital factor for determining the history change, politics, economy, culture even the world outlook. This view has the one side and absolute error and is a kind of detailed and deepened geographical environment determinism. However, the energy status in natural environment plays a crucial role in the social development which cannot be negated. Researching the history in view of the energy environment is a key issue.
