"Deniers of climate change have benefited from political strategies
developed by conservative think tanks and public relations experts
paid handsomely by the energy industry. With this book,
environmental activists can benefit from some scholarly attention
turned to their efforts. This book exhibits the best that public
scholarship has to offer. Its authors utilize sophisticated
rhetorical theory and criticism to uncover the inventional
constraints and possibilities for participants at various sites of
the Step-It-Up day of climate activism. What makes this book
especially valuable is that it is not only directed to fellow
communication scholars, but is written in a clear and accessible
style to bring the insights of an academic field to a broader
public of activists committed to building an environmental social
movement." - Prof. Leah Ceccarelli, University of Washington "This
is an unusually interesting volume grounded in a sustained and
coordinated analysis of the Step It Up campaign. Generating a
multifaceted and shared archive for analyzing the SIU campaign on
global warming, the volume's multiple authors critically examine
intersecting dimensions of the SIU campaign-its persuasive
strategies, organizational dynamics, and political practices for
everyday citizens-with an eye on implications for enhancing the
larger environmental movement. Readers with a practical and
theoretical interest in social and political movements will find
this book engaging and leavened with heuristic value." - Professor
Robert L. Ivie, Indiana University, Bloomington
