About this title

Synopsis

This book explores the influence of religion, culture, community, and digital innovation as key dimensions of climate change communication in Asia.

As climate change continues to shape our world, effective communication plays a vital role in bridging the gap between scientific knowledge and public action. Against this backdrop, this book examines the role of climate change communication in Asia by showcasing unique cases and examples from selected countries including Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, Pakistan, India, the Philippines, China, South Korea, Iran, Afghanistan, and Kazakhstan. Divided into four key parts, the chapters draw on a broad selection of examples including rising sea levels in Jakarta, increasing numbers of typhoons in East Asia, extreme heatwaves and climate-induced agricultural losses in India and Pakistan, and accelerated glacial melt in Central Asia.

Overall, the book demonstrates the importance of distinguishing regional experiences from Western perspectives and highlights the critical role that climate change communication plays in raising awareness and promoting informed responses in Asian countries. This book will serve as a valuable reference source for students, academics, and industry professionals at both local and global levels.
