Journal of Environmental Media

Aims & Scope

The Journal of Environmental Media (JEM) explores the role of digital screen culture and new media in shaping environmentally themed content and activism, communicating environmental data and impacting social perceptions of the environment.

JEM is a scholarly platform aimed at bridging work in environmental studies, digital culture studies, environmental justice, infrastructure and materiality studies, STS, media anthropology and environmental communication, covering a range of environmental issues such as climate change, environmental racism, energy infrastructures, biodiversity, climate migration and e-waste.

We promote work that engages with diverse methodological and disciplinary approaches, bringing social science research into dialogue with environmental humanities, screen studies and intersectional social theory, in order to investigate a broad landscape of media forms and practices including smart technology, machine learning, popular media and streaming services, social media platforms and new developments in augmented reality and virtual reality.
