Environmental strategic communication
Rowman & Littlefield (Verlag)
978-1-5381-5228-7 (ISBN)
A growing focus on environmentalism among government agencies, corporations, non-profits and the general public has necessitated a turn to the practice of environmental advocacy in all of its forms, including public relations practice, persuasive messaging, and social marketing. As scientists, public policy experts, and NGOs seek influence on issues of climate change, wildlife conservation, air pollution, and the health of oceans, they are turning to professional communication practices in order to best engage with publics and policymakers.
Environmental Advocacy and Public Relations provides students with both a theoretical understanding of environmental public relations and the tools with which to apply this knowledge. This includes hard skills such as a green op-ed writing, eco feature writing, publicity tactics including news releases, the art of interviewing for television and video, and social media acumen.
This text meets a growing needs for understanding environmentalism within media and communication. Unlike standard public relations texts, Environmental Advocacy and Public Relations integrates theories from environmentalism and ecology. It also recognizes the uniqueness of media tactics designed for green policy debates and social marketing. Finally, it emphasizes the agency of activist organizations like Greenpeace and the Sierra Club, which are central players in policy debates and warrant larger billing than they are often afforded in traditional PR and strategic communication textbooks.
