Mark Terry provides a framework for understanding today?s crusades, especially their use of new media. Equally important, he offers an important practical guide for enlisting the perspective and energy of youth to address critical issues, notably the climate crisis. In a world facing momentous challenges, Speaking Youth to Power could not be more timely, valuable, or necessary." ?David J. Bodenhamer, Professor of History and Informatics, Indiana University, Indianapolis. This book examines the methods and approaches currently being taken by the global community of youth in influencing environmental policymakers of the United Nations. It is divided into two sections: The Groundswell Approach, exploring the use of social media and mass gatherings aimed at raising public awareness of the issue of climate change; and The Direct Approach, a participatory methodology that encourages collaboration directly with the policymaker and youth in the discussions and creation of progressive climate policy for the world. The book also delivers a detailed analysis of the United Nations? only database of youth-produced documentary films related to climate change research, impacts, and proposed solutions: the Youth Climate Report, arguing that film is a powerful and effective communications tool for the policymaker. The book proposes two frameworks and explores their in-field applications for successful youth climate activism. Mark Terry is a scholar, explorer, and filmmaker. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, the Royal Canadian Geographical Society, and The Explorers Club. He teaches at the Faculty of Environmental and Urban Change, York University, Toronto, and the Faculty of Arts, Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, Canada. 410 0$aPalgrave Studies in Media and Environmental Communication,$x2634-646X 606 $aCommunication in the environmental sciences 606 $aYouth?Social life and customs 606 $aEnvironmental policy 606 $aEnvironmental Communication 606 $aYouth Culture 606 $aEnvironmental Policy 615 0$aCommunication in the environmental sciences. 615 0$aYouth?Social life and customs. 615 0$aEnvironmental policy. 615 14$aEnvironmental Communication. 615 24$aYouth Culture. 615 24$aEnvironmental Policy. 676 $a780 676 $a305.235 700 $aTerry$b Mark$0923899 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910637712903321 996 $aSpeaking Youth to Power$93003053 997 $aUNINA
