Climate change is one of the most significant challenges facing the global community in the twenty-first century. With its position at the border of people, technology, science, and communication, technical communication has a significant role to play in helping to solve these complex environmental problems. This collection of essays engages scholars and practitioners in a conversation about how the field has contributed to pragmatic and democratic action to address climate change. Compared to most prior work—which offers theoretical perspectives of environmental communication—this collection explores the actual practice of international technical communicators who participate in government projects, corporate processes, nonprofit programs, and international agency work, demonstrating how technical communication theories such as participatory design, social justice, and ethics can help shape pragmatic environmental action.br> SUNY Press has collaborated with Knowledge Unlatched to unlock KU Focus Collection titles.

This collection calls for improved technical communication for the public through an embodied, situated understanding of environmental risk that promotes social justice. In addition to providing a series of chapters about recent issues on risk communication, this volume offers a diverse look at methodological practices for students, researchers, and practitioners looking to address embodied aspects of crisis and risk that incorporate UX, storytelling, and dynamic text. It includes chapters that bring embodiment to the forefront of risk communication, highlighting the cycle of content creation, dissemination, public response and decision making, continuing iterations of educational efforts, and recovery, toward increasing adaptive capacity as a whole. In addition, this work directs necessary attention to overcoming perceptual difficulties, memory lapses, definitional differences, access issues, and pedagogical problems in the communication of risks to diverse publics. This collection is essential reading for scholars and can be used as a supplemental text or casebook for courses in technical communication, environmental communication, risk and crisis communication, science communication, and public health.

Commonplaces Of Scientific Evidence In Environmental Discourses written by Denise Tillery and has been published by Routledge this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2017-11-22 with Language Arts & Disciplines categories.
This book focuses on the uses of scientific evidence within three types of environmental discourses: popular nonfiction books about the environment; traditional and social media texts created by a grassroots environmental group; and a set of data displays that make arguments about global warming in a variety of media and contexts. It traces the operations of eight commonplaces about science and shows how they recur throughout these contexts, starting with Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring and ending with contemporary blogs and social media. The commonplaces are shown to embed ideological assumptions and simultaneously challenge those assumptions. In addition, the book addresses the potential dangers involved in relying too heavily on aspects of these commonplaces, and how they can undermine the goals of some of the writers who use them.

Catastrophic storms, searing heat waves, crumbling waterfronts, warming oceans, air-fouling forest fires and mass extinction have become facts of life. Under these conditions, it is difficult to imagine that the global industrial civilization will continue in its present form. This requires us to reconsider the subject of ecocomposition from a new perspective: “What does it mean to teach college writing in the face of this sobering reality?” The introduction reviews the history of ecocomposition and reframes it in light of the apocalyptic turn in climate discourse over the last quarter century as well as the role that ecocomposition theory can play in framing these discussions. Teaching Writing in the Age of Catastrophic Climate Change is organized into four sections. The first section considers the environmental narrative from the viewpoint of climate justice, while the second reframes pedagogies of place in light of the climate catastrophe. The third section examines the intersections of writing studies and the natural sciences, while the fourth section entertains the personal and emotional dimensions of teaching ecocomposition within the framework of catastrophic climate change. If we have been successful, these chapters provide a starting place for having sobering discussions in our classrooms, and considering what ecocomposition means in this unsettling age.

The Seventh Edition of the award-winning Environmental Communication and the Public Sphere is the best-selling comprehensive introduction in the field of environmental communication. This groundbreaking book focuses on the role that human communication plays in influencing the ways we perceive, transform, and attempt to heal relations with everything we consider to be "the environment" - from microscopic chemicals in cosmetics to the climate we breathe. Authors Phaedra C. 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 Seventh Edition explores recent events and research that have emerged since the last edition, including: the latest on the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on journalism, climate commitments of Big Tech, global climate justice course cases, mutual aid networking, ultra-processed food policy, anti-plastics advocacy, expanding legal rights of nonhuman animals, and more.
