Ecomobilities examines the ideological connections between automobiles, the environment, and the end of the world, focusing on the car’s inseparability from modern life. Through popular films addressing both mobilities and environmental disasters, Ecomobilities reveals how American automobility has influenced responses to warming temperatures and shifting ecosystems.
