As of 2018 the message that urgent measures must be implemented to avoid planetary collapse owes much to the youth climate movement, led by, among others, activist Greta Thunberg. The main aim of this research is to explore the level of penetration of the urgency discourse, necessary to determine future communication strategies. Our methodological...

Climate change communication on social media plays a prominent role in efforts undertaken by state agencies, NGOs, and international organizations, to make citizens aware of this phenomenon. The images used to communicate climate change are of great importance, since they can help to effectively raise citizen awareness. Building upon news values th...

Tras la publicación del informe del Panel Intergubernamental para el Cambio Climático (IPCC, por sus siglas en inglés) de 2018, las expresiones “crisis climática” y “emergencia climática” avalan un nuevo discurso sobre el clima, también en los medios de comunicación. En este artículo se presenta una revisión bibliográfica sobre la evolución de las...

Online video has become a relevant tool to disseminate scientific information to the public. However, in this arena, science coexists with non-scientific or pseudoscientific beliefs that can influence people’s knowledge, attitudes, and behavior. Our research sets out to find empirical evidence of the representation of pro-science, anti-science and...

La cobertura que los medios de comunicación otorgan al cambio climático repercute en el lugar que este tema ocupa en la agenda pública. Cuanta más cobertura, más importancia percibida (McCombs y Shaw, 1972). Del mismo modo, según las teorías del framing (Entman, 1993), el enfoque que los medios ofrecen sobre el cambio climático influye en la valora...

The democratisation of online video has opened some exciting opportunities for communicating science in the early 21st century. Businesses, organisations and individuals are all ‘participants’ in the new panorama of digital communication, but a distinction is usually made between user-generated content (UGC) and professionally generated content (PG...

Although scientific controversies are resolved when the evidence favours one of the arguments, in fact many of these controversies that were resolved in the scientific field continue to circulate as real controversies in the social sphere and even in political debates. That is the case of the reality of climate change and the unproven connection be...

It is not easy to determine the precise moment when climate change became a public communication issue in Spain. Among early references, the national newspaper El País published a story titled " World climate is going to change, " on November 17, 1976, and the term " global warming, " imported from the United States, appeared frequently in the medi...

We present an exploratory study of science communication via online video through various UK-based YouTube science content providers. We interviewed five people responsible for eight of the most viewed and subscribed professionally generated content channels. The study reveals that the immense potential of online video as a science communication to...

Resumen La representación del cambio climático en los medios de comunicación a menudo ha estado asociada a narrativas alarmistas y catastróficas, en especial, cuando se ha vinculado a fenómenos de tiempo extremo, como inundaciones, huracanes o sequías. Los medios de comunicación son fundamentales para las teorías sobre el riesgo (Beck, 1996). Dentr...

New ‘digital-born players’ such as Huffington Post, BuzzFeed and Vice are challenging traditional media in their provision of news in general, and about the environment in particular. They have invested heavily in a wide range of countries and languages in an attempt to reach young audiences, who increasingly use social media as their source of new...

Según la más reciente encuesta sobre la percepción social de la ciencia en España, Internet es el medio más popular para obtener información sobre ciencia. Entre las herramientas utilizadas, el vídeo es cada vez más importante, ya que concentra más de la mitad del tráfico de toda la red. El nuevo paradigma de la comunicación por Internet abre posib...

The images used by the media to represent science can help people's understanding of complex processes and create meaningful links with audiences. This is particularly relevant in the case of climate change (CC), an important phenomenon that, nevertheless, is often perceived as a remote issue, with no relevance to daily life. This article presents...

This thesis focuses on climate change coverage on television news programmes in Spain and analyzes the role of the images. Firstly, the complexity of the information relating to climate change is illustrated: the information is often controversial, with both a scientific and a political dimension. These dimensions are presented in a historical and...

Television is the main source of general information and owes its prominence, to a large extent, to the impact of the image. But the visual potential becomes an obstacle to information about certain issues, such as climate change (CC), which are not likely to be associated with specific images. This study, both quantitative and qualitative, takes a...

Controversy has been a relevant element in the coverage of climate change. Several studies emphasize the influence of economic, political, and journalistic factors in the portrayal of controversies on this topic, along the last few decades. Very often this was related to the lobbying action of several political and economic interest groups and resu...
