Climate change has been a significant area of scientific concern since the late 1970s. This title explores how practices of mediation and visualisation shape how we think about, address and act upon climate change. It identifies the representational problems climate change poses for public and political debate.
Contents: Introduction: making climate change meaningful; Part I Historicising/Theorising Climate Change: Problematising science and environment: conceptualising nature, vision and time in the mediation of climate change; Visualising climate change: negotiating the temporalities of climate through imagery; Coda: nature,vision and time. Part II Mediating/Addressing Climate Change: An emerging climate movement: questioning values of environment, justice and faith; Mediating Copenhagen: communicating scientific (un)certainty and the political (un)urgency of climate action; Sustainable consumption? Reframing meat and dairy consumption in the politics of climate change; Imaginative engagements: critical reflections on visual arts and climate change; Epilogue: positive action in a changing climate; References; Index.
