<span>Environment, Social Justice, and the Media in the Age of Anthropocene</span>
<span> addresses three imminent challenges to human society in the age of the Anthropocene. The first challenge involves the survival of the species; the second the breakdown of social justice; and the third the inability of the media to provide global audiences with an adequate orientation about these issues. The notion of the Anthropocene as a geological age shaped by human intervention implies a new understanding of the human context that influences the physical and biological sciences. Human existence continues to be affected by the physical and biological reality from which it evolved but, in turn, it affects that reality as well. This work addresses this paradox by bringing together the contributions of researchers from very different disciplines in conversation about the complex relationships between the physical/biological world and the human world to offer different perspectives and solutions in establishing social and environmental justice in the age of the Anthropocene.</span>
<span>This book defines for readers the ecological epoch known as the Anthropocene and brings together an interdisciplinary roster of researchers and scholars to address key imminent challenges to human society posed by climate crisis. The work also analyzes and provides a constructive vision on the relationship between social justice and the media.</span>
