This Handbook provides a state-of-the-art review of leading research on climate change communication. As climate change has moved further up the political agenda, the challenge of how to communicate the scientific, social, and political aspects of the climate emergency is of increasing interest to researchers, NGOs, governments, and policymakers at national and international levels. The Routledge Handbook on Climate Crisis Communication provides a concise and expert summary of this growing field, explaining the theoretical, conceptual, and empirical developments that have been made in recent years and describing the origins and connections to broader topics, including risk perception; environmental journalism; social media; and climate justice and activism. With contributions from leading international scholars, the book is divided into seven key parts, besides the Introduction chapter:

Part One: Conceptual Challenges

Part Two: Methodological Considerations

Part Three: Communicating Climate Science across Cultures

Part Four: Journalism and News Reportage

Part Five: Activism and Social Movements

Part Six: Audiences and Popular Culture

Part Seven: Future Directions

Taking stock of the current landscape of climate change communication and helping to shape the field of inquiry going forward, this is a go-to guide for established and newly interested researchers, government and policymaking bodies, and students and their instructors.
