This volume examines the role of communication in contributing
to and contesting the current climate crisis. There is now
widespread agreement that even if increases in carbon emissions
are kept to the current international target the climate crisis
will continue to intensify. This book brings together, for the
first time, state-of-the-art research with activists’
interventions to place debate around climate crisis within the
wider conversation about the changing relations between
communications and contemporary capitalism. Contributors
include; Naomi Klein, Michael Mann, Alan Rusbridger, Vincent
Mosco, Jodi Dean, and leading figures in Greenpeace and
