Abstract

This chapter examines the English-language literature on news media coverage of environmental issues from 1975 to 2016 to describe the state of the field. Systematic reviews in environmental communication and related areas have ranged from broad reviews to narrower examinations of climate change media coverage, risk communication, food systems and communication, sustainability studies and digital communication, and media coverage of science. There is evidence that environmental communication research examining news media is increasing in other regions of the world. Rich and poor countries have different environmental problems in this view; therefore, their environmental communication requires different kinds of research. Given the expansion of environmental communication research in this decade itself, issues such as sustainability or environmental justice, and assess media coverage in the Global South where the news media oftentimes present a largely different picture of environmental issues than they do in the Global North.
