Media and communication processes are central to how we come to
know about and make sense of our environment and to the ways in
which environmental concerns are generated, elaborated, manipulated
and contested. The second edition of Environment, Media and
Communication builds on the first edition's framework for analysing
and understanding media and communication roles in the politics of
the environment. It draws on the significant and continuing growth
and advances in the field of environmental communication research
to show the increasing diversification and complexity of
environmental communication. The book highlights the persistent
urgency of analysing and understanding how communication about the
environment is being influenced and manipulated, with implications
for how and indeed whether environmental challenges are being
addressed and dealt with. Since the first edition, changes in media
organisations, news media and environmental journalism have
continued apace, but - perhaps more significantly - the media
technologies and the media and communications landscape have
evolved profoundly with the continued rise of digital and social
media. Such changes have gone hand in hand with, and often
facilitated, enabled and enhanced shifting balances of power in the
politics of the environment. There is thus a greater need than ever
to analyse and understand the roles of mediated public
communication about the environment, and to ask critical questions
about who/what benefits and who/what is adversely affected by such
processes. This book will be of interest to students in
media/communication studies, geography, environmental studies,
political science and sociology as well as to environmental
professionals and activists.
