The book’s in-depth investigation of the BC LNG controversy identifies progressive extractivism as an increasingly popular policy/discursive paradigm adopted by fossil fuel advocates to legitimize unconventional fossil fuels in an era of intensifying climate crisis. It also highlights the importance of debunking the misleading “jobs versus the environment” dichotomy in mobilizing public opposition to carbon-intensive economic growth.
This deeply nuanced look at energy discourse in public policy will have resonance for scholars and students working in the areas of environmental communication, rhetoric, discourse analysis, public policy, and climate change rhetoric.
Sibo Chen is an Assistant Professor at the School of Professional Communication, Toronto Metropolitan University, Canada. He is also an executive board member of International Environmental Communication Association (2021-2025). His current research explores how political polarization is communicated in the public sphere, focusing on three topics: political contention over climate change, online mis/disinformation, and the rise of anti-Asian racism.
