“…People usually choose to wait for other bigger institutions such as NGOs or the government to act, rather than taking real actions by themselves. In environmental campaigns, one of the first questions faced is what we want to accomplish, what will persuade the decision makers to act towards the objectives, and how to compose an effective message [6]. Many campaigners or the initiators of a campaign do not understand what they want to achieve.…”

“…An environmental campaign should be specific and straightforward to reach the set goals. Most successful campaigns have concrete, specific, and time-limited actions or decisions [6]. Identifying key decision-makers is also important, there will be no success in communication when we do not understand our audience.…”

“…Lastly, creating a powerful message is very crucial in an environmental campaign. A message is usually a sentence or short memorable phrase which concisely, compellingly, and concisely expresses a campaign's objective and goals [6]. No matter how perfectly planned the previous steps are, if the message is not powerful enough, usually the result would not be effective.…”

“…In addition, the International Environmental Communication Association was launched in 2011. Monographs have also been published, such as Cox [5] Environmental Communication and the Public Sphere, in which articles on science communication, policy-making processes, advocacy campaigns, environmental journalism, environmental movements, and environmental rhetoric across scholarly and profession fields are presented [6] . In addition, Godemann and Michelsen [4] edited a book titled of Sustainability Communication: Interdisciplinary Perspectives and Theoretical Foundations that features cross-disciplinary perspectives to emphasize the values and roles of sustainability communication.…”

The purpose of this investigation was to systematically evaluate environmental communication studies across the communication-related disciplines. This study achieved the goal by examining published articles in 28 journals from the time period spanning 1973-2014. A total of 142 articles were evaluated based on an analysis of authorial, topical, theoretical, and methodological information. The findings demonstrate exponential growth in the number of environmental communication studies in recent years. A wide range of scholars and institutions has contributed to this area of research. A majority of the articles focused on environmental issues. The outcome of this study could provide a comprehensive picture of communication-based environmental research and guide the directions of future research in this area.

“…According to contemporary literature, holding strong pro-environmental cognitions (PEC; i.e., attitudes and norms) is an important predictor of PEB (Li et al, 2019). Interestingly, individuals who care about the climate crisis do not always engage in PEB nor hold PEC (Pezzullo & Cox, 2016). In particular, adolescents, despite being highly concerned about the personal impact of climate change, are more reluctant to engage in PEB (Corner et al, 2015;Grønhøj & Thøgersen, 2012).…”

Despite the circulation of climate content on social media, little longitudinal research has explored their relations with pro-environmental attitudes and behaviors. Considering that individual behaviors, in conjunction with structural change, are critical to mitigate climate change, this two-wave panel study among 657 adolescents examined how social media interactions (i.e., exposure, liking, commenting, sharing and posting of climate messages) reciprocally related to adolescents’ pro-environmental cognitions (i.e., descriptive and injunctive norms, attitudes) and behavior. The study showed transactional relationships between self-posting and sharing of climate content over time. Pro-environmental behavior at Wave 1 (W1) positively related to all cognitive variables at Wave 2 (W2), yet no reciprocal relationship occurred as none of the cognitive variables (W1) predicted behavior (W2) over time. Moreover, with the exception of the positive link between “liking” (W1) and attitudes (W2), no (reciprocal) relationships between social media interactions and adolescents’ pro-environmental cognitions and behavior occurred over time.
