The Mediated Climate

Phaedra C. Pezzullo, author of Beyond Straw Men: Plastic Pollution and Networked Cultures of Care :
As any journalist can tell you: the climate crisis is a communication crisis. Russell provides an honest reflection on the ways journalism has been part of the problem, as well as a necessary part of the solution.

Zizi Papacharissi, author of After Democracy: Imagining Our Political Future:
A brilliant, sharp, and original book on how we talk about climate change, and what a difference that might make for our collective future. Change begins with words, and Russell presents an inspiring call for journalists and citizens to lead it.

Max Boykoff, author of Creative (Climate) Communications: Productive Pathways for Science, Policy and Society :
The Mediated Climate puts the status quo on notice. By scrutinizing the intersections between climate change and information ecosystems, the book shows that this is a social, political, cultural, technological, and existential set of intersecting challenges we must bravely address now.
