• Sommario/riassunto: This book is an informative and how-to guide for writing about the environment. Part One focuses on issues of environmental writing that writers must be aware of before they begin writing, such as environmental ideologies, affordances and constraints of various genres, considerations for audience, and social and political issues that influence environmental communication. Part Two is the how-to part of the guide with eight chapters that introduce readers to various writing strategies like how to write in narrative form, sensory writing, incorporating research, the use of visuals, and more.
