About this book
This book explores how China's media narrate climate policy and climate change. With the rapid growth of economy and carbon emissions, China has been seen as having a key role in addressing
climate change and receives substantial attention from the media. In the
Chinese coverage, climate change issues can be interpreted as various concerns
and ideas involving the dimensions of the economy, energy and emissions, public
involvement, science and ecology, and responsibility. In this sense, a discourse
approach can be used to understand how the newspapers construct the climate
change discourse and discourse networks in the coverage. This study selects
three different newspapers in China, namely People’s
Daily, China Daily and Southern Weekend. This book will interest scholars of Chinese politics, environmentalists, and media studies scholars.
