EcoMedia and other tools for the Anthropocene by Gabriele Hadl

The creation of the modern Santa Claus in America and his history in Japan are considered, from his early Meiji period appearances to present-day representations, with a special focus on Japanese television advertising at the turn of the 21st century. Ideological implications of the Santa images are analyzed using the following techniques: 1) putting advertisements into historical context, analyzing them as media texts (with focus on audio-visual and narrative elements) 2) reading ideological messages, taking a Media Studies approach (which includes research through dialogue), and 3) applying the three-readings paradigm developed by Hall. Special attention is given to issues of advertising culture and ethnicity. Santa Claus emerges as a symbol of white ethnicity and a myth used to hide economic and ecological realities.
The aim of this research is to enable the reader to negotiate the media text Santa represents, and in so doing, demonstrate a mode of critical thinking toward textual and ideological analysis that can be applied to a broad spectrum of media messages.

http://www.k... more A 180-page book in Japanese covering the theory and practice of EcoMedia Literacy.
http://www.kgup.jp/author/a105196.html
One of first textbooks for green media education, in Japanese. It is a straight-forward introduction to studying environmental communication. Hadl introduces the works of many environmental communication scholars at IECA (the International Environmental Communication Association, https://theieca.org/ ) and beyond (notably Antonio Lopez) in Japanese for the first time.
The book is aimed at anyone interested in sustainability, from citizens wanting to raise their own level of ecomedia literacy (for which there is demand in the wake of the nuclear disaster) to professional workshop facilitators (teachers from junior high level to grad school). It bridges the gap between environmental communication and media education. Many of the concepts proposed and research cited are entirely new or little known in Japan.
It consists of three parts: The first tells the story of the author's OhShit! moments that lead her to realize that environmental media education should be a top priority: the climate cliff, ocean crisis, wildlife crisis and the 2011 nuclear accident at TEPCO's Fukuichi Power Plant.
The second part covers theory. It defines the Concepts of EcoMedia Literacy ('green hacks' of the traditional media literacy concepts by Len Masterman), beginning with "Media society relies on the natural environment." It also proposes Principles for Learning, including "Open your mind, but not to unreasonable ideas," which try to dispell the relativism and cynicism that can emerge in media literacy workshops.
The third part consists of step-by-step instructions, readings and worksheets for EcoMedia literacy workshops. Covering topics from representation of human-nature relations to e-waste, it wraps up with a series of workshops* for eco-media activism and media detoxing.
The appendices contain a guide for frame-by-frame image analysis, and an extensive glossary of environmental communication concepts from 'climate denial campaign', 'nomophobia' and 'media mindprint' to 'ecocinema'.
Says the author about her motivation to write this book: "Fukushima was a wake-up call for the whole country. I had invested much of my career in researching communication rights and media justice. But rights cannot be upheld without restoring balance in the natural world. Adding a few words about ecology or environmental justice to our considerations is not enough. We need to fundamentally change our perspective. Crisis is always an opportunity. Things that seem impossible can happen overnight."

Abstract:
That humans are “somewhere between animals and angels” (de Waal 2016) is a central tenant of modern culture, reassuring us that we humans are superior, unique and separate from other living beings. Many environmentalists blame this anthropocentrism for accelerating ecocide. Environmental communication scholars have long argued that in order to fight ecocide, media culture needs to feature representations of humanity’s place in the world that challenge and replace anthropocentrism (cf. Corbett 2006, Stibbe 2012).
Using examples from Japanese traditional arts and anime culture, I show that animist/post-humanist portrayals of animal-human relations can be commercially successful and culturally influential. However, there is so far little evidence such media have any measurable effect on the urgently needed transition toward a sustainable culture. Does post-humanism actually contribute something, or is it simply ancient wine in space-age bottles? Is anthropocentrism really a ‘bete noire’ worth battling? Are there more promising ‘technologies of survival’?
The paper points out that some of the problems environmental media scholars have criticized in modern media culture (e.g. representing animals out of context, zoomorphism/anthropomorphism, ostensibly showing respect for animals while mostly serving to soothe humans' bad conscience over treating them cruelly) are already present in some of the oldest representations of human-animal relations as found in art created tens of thousands of years ago (perhaps not even by homo sapiens but other human species). The task of 'creating a sustainable media culture' is thus a monumental one, albeit not impossible.
This paper expands on themes proposed in the book chapter “Nature, Media and the Future- Unnatural Disaster, Animist Anime, and Eco-media Activism in Japan” in F. Darling (ed), Encyclopedia of Japanese Media (2018).
Keywords: animism, post-humanism, animation film, anthropocentrism, anthropomorphism, zoomorphism, sustainability, human-animal relationships.

It starts with a workshop where the presentation audience is asked to "take a stand" on climate change, literally by standing on a matrix that indicates how serious they consider the issue and how possible they believe solving it is.
The first section considers ways of confronting the reality of climate change, and relating to the young people who will be tasked with solving (too) many of the issues associated with it. It argues to leave behind 20th century thinking and instead considering "Climate as Number One".
The second section summarizes climate communication research on the question "How to talk about climate change (and how not)".
The third gives a (limited and conditional) answer to the title question based on informal surveys of participants in my college classes at Kwansei Gakuin University from 2011-2014. (Note these surveys were originally conducted in order to design class content, not as social research. The results are thus not quotable. They do, however, offer some insight into effective climate communication practice and offer hints for further research.)

From the rising prices of produce to the violent blockade against refugees, issues affecting Europe and North America are linked to changing weather patterns. Climate change is emerging as the preeminent threat, ahead of economics or terrorism.[i] Most US citizens would pay higher energy bills to help reduce CO2 emissions.But their leaders are denialists.
