This writing positions the accompanying volume within a realm of complications of climate change journalism that operates amid recognized pressures of journalistic practice through notions of political economy, the social and cultural influences shaping news explanations, and critical interpretations of the current global crisis of a warming planet. Specifically, this volume is interested in how journalism may function among "synergistic effects" of climate change, the compounded impact of severe weather, social and political responses to changing global warming, and the often-unfortunate results and impacts on our environments as global communities attempt to address climate events already challenging for journalists to cover and the social and cultural outcomes associated with them.

The acceleration of global climate change creates a nexus for the examination of power, political rhetoric, science communication, and sustainable development. This book takes an international view of twenty first century environmental communication to critically explore mediated expressions of climate change

This book examines the forces responsible for emerging inequalities in the rampant development of Miami as a "world city." Looking at news as central to neoliberal movements in physical geography and collective ideology, the authors analyze intersections of memory, race, capitalism, and journalistic power as Miami's geography changes due to rising seas.

This Special Issue focuses on issues of sustainability and its (potential) effect(s) on widening inequalities. It does so through discussions on visual and digital communication, including documentary filmmaking, photojournalism, cartography and citizen multimedia journalism, with a broad geographic span. The issue is comprised of two sets of scholarly approaches. The first set includes perhaps more conventionally arranged articles that align with the Special Issue theme, while the second set is steeped in intersections of theory and practice as short essays, revolving around visualizations that articulate veiled senses of inequalities in sustainability discourses.

This paper critically examines 48 digital news updates to six New York Times online articles collected through 181 captures via the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine (WBM), a web scraping tool, pertaining to federal military and local police responses to Portland protests published in headlines, sources, quotes, hyperlinks, the order of information presented, and articles' main thrusts of meaning. Through this analysis, we call for the notion of "ideological correction" to represent an additional element of the liquidity of journalism in this case — shifts in news explanations of single articles that altered the articles' focus on and characterizations of law enforcement and protesters — sometimes even under the same, original headline and article URL.

In this editorial introduction, we revisit the question: 'What is environmental media studies?' This provocation, raised in an exceptional article by founding co-editors Meryl Shriver-Rice and Hunter Vaughan in the journal's first issue, continues to influence how the journal moves forward. However, under the leadership of a new editorial team, we reflect on the new directions and ongoing challenges presented by the interdisciplinary field of environmental media studies through the contributions of Issue 4.1. Working across a number of approaches, topics and interdisciplinary positions, we offer insights into the transformations of the field demonstrated in the excellent work of our authors.

Scholarship related to environmental questions in Latin America has only recently begun to coalesce around citizenship as both an empirical site of inquiry and an analytical frame of reference. This has led to a series of new insights and perspectives, but few efforts have been made to bring these various approaches into a sustained conversation across different social, temporal and geographic contexts. This volume is the result of a collaborative endeavour to advance debates on environmental citizenship, while simultaneously and systematically addressing broader theoretical and methodological questions related to the particularities of studying environment and citizenship in Latin America. Providing a window onto leading scholarship in the field, the book also sets an ambitious agenda to spark further research
