We focus on public understanding of climate change science and test the hypotheses: [H 1 ] as citizens’ ideology shifts from liberal to conservative, concern for global warming decreases; [H 2 ] citizens with college edu…
Anthropocentric Distance in National Geographic' s Environmental Aesthetic
Tourism is the way we understand the world: tourists travel in an increasingly mediated environment in which ubiquitous promotional material and other popular artifacts employ stunning images and romantic travel narratives to describe local environments. Tourist texts “sell” local landscapes to entice visitors, employing an environmental aesthetic that urges travel. With its mission to “explore the planet,” the National Geographic Society contrib…
The Aesthetic Turn in Green Marketing: Environmental Consumer Ethics of Natural Personal Care Products
Green consumerism is on the rise in America, but its environmental effects are contested. Does green marketing contribute to the greening of American consciousness, or does it encourage corporate greenwashing? This tenuous ethical position means that eco-marketers must carefully frame their environmental products in a way that appeals to consumers with environmental ethics and buyers who consider natural products as well as conventional items. Th…

Competing claims to resources in the Brazilian Amazon reflect changing notions of state authority and the role of indigenous citizens in protection of biodiversity. The debate between Brazilian state governments and the Yanomami Indians and seringueiros (Brazilian Rubber Tapper communities) illustrates the comple…
