Environmental communication and the public sphere
xxix, 358 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm.
The sixth edition of the award-winning Environmental Communication and the Public Sphere is the best-selling comprehensive introduction to the growing field of environmental communication. This groundbreaking book focuses on the role that human communication plays in influencing the ways we perceive the environment. Phaedra Pezzullo and Robert Cox examine how we define what constitutes an environmental problem and how we decide what actions to take concerning the natural world. The updated and revised sixth edition explores recent events and research that have emerged since the last edition, including fast fashion, global youth climate strikes, biodiversity loss, disability rights advocacy, single-use plastic ban controversies, COVID-19 and more.
