This volume takes a distinctive look at the climate change debate,
already widely studied across a number of disciplines, by exploring
the myriad linguistic and discursive perspectives and approaches at
play in the climate change debate as represented in a variety of
genres. The book focuses on key linguistic themes, including
linguistic polyphony, lexical choices, metaphors, narration, and
framing, and uses examples from diverse forms of media, including
scientific documents, policy reports, op-eds, and blogs, to shed
light on how information and knowledge on climate change can be
represented, disseminated, and interpreted and in turn, how they
can inform further discussion and debate. Featuring contributions
from a global team of researchers and drawing on a broad array of
linguistic approaches, this collection offers an extensive overview
of the role of language in the climate change debate for graduate
students, researchers, and scholars in applied linguistics,
environmental communication, discourse analysis, political science,
climatology, and media studies.
