What role does journalism play in shaping how we understand climate change and the planet we live on? This thought-provoking book explores how media systems have helped construct our idea of the “human” Earth, from early nature reporting to today’s digital climate dashboards. Drawing on insights from the humanities and social sciences, it offers a fresh look at how news, data and storytelling influence public thinking in the age of the Anthropocene. Building on the work of influential thinkers, the book asks how journalism can evolve to meet the demands of a rapidly changing world.

‘Much of our current approach to journalism was developed at the turn of the previous century, during the great age of industrialization and urbanization. As we deal with the environmental impact of the forces unleashed during that period, it’s time we rethink what journalism is, and can be. Combining training and perspectives from Sociology, Science and Technology Studies, and Media, Dominic Hinde provides an excellent roadmap for this process.’ Robert Gioielli, KTH Environmental Humanities Lab
