Concern for natural heritage – an effective way to raise concern about climate change? This blogpost is the second of a series of pieces reflecting on the communication of climate change, drawing on Erika Bjerström’s book Klimatkrisens Sverige (2020) to examine and illustrate key aspects of environmental communication. The first blogpost explores the role of emotions, specifically grief and hope, in communication about climate change.
