The Mediated Climate, with author Adrienne Russell

The Center for Media, Communication & Global Change invites you to an evening with former AUP colleague Adrienne Russell, who will present her new book The Mediated Climate: How Journalists, Big Tech and Activists are Vying for our Future (Columbia University Press 2023).

In her book, Adrienne argues that our inadequate response to climate change is intertwined with the profound challenges facing our communication environment. She will discuss her research on journalists, activists, scientists, and other advocates for climate action, how their efforts are often compromised in today’s media landscape, and what we can do about it.

Adrienne Russell is Mary Laird Wood Professor of Communication and co-director of the Center for Journalism, Media, and Democracy at the University of Washington, Seattle. She is currently a fellow at the Weizenbaum Institute in Berlin.
