Part I introduces the reader to the concept and theories of citizenship and explores the impact that environmental concerns are having on contemporary formulations of citizenship, both traditional (e.g., national, liberal and republican) and emerging (e.g., cosmopolitan, ecological and ecofeminist). Part II explores the practical manifestations of environmental citizenship, with each chapter focusing on a particular actor: citizens, governments, and corporations. These chapters include references to examples and case studies from a wide range of countries, broadly categorized as belonging to the Global North and the Global South. Part III explores the making of green citizens and outlines the dominant articulations of environmental citizenship that emerge from formal education, news media and popular culture. The book concludes with a general reflection on the present and future of environmental citizenship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book contains a variety of illustrations, boxed case studies, links to online resources and suggestions for further reading.

It draws on the significant and continuing growth and advances in the field of environmental communication research to show the increasing diversification and complexity of environmental communication.
