What is Environmental Communication?
Environmental communications is communication about environmental affairs. It includes evaluation of how media cover environmental issues, the rhetoric of environmental debates and decision making, and the discourse around how to solve environmental problems. Environmental communication is all of the many forms of communication (interpersonal, group, public, organizational, mass, etc.) that intersect with the social debate about environmental issues and problems.
