JOUR458P-  Special Topics in Journalism; Climate Crisis, Climate Justice, Climate Security: Approaches to Covering Climate Change
Climate change is the single biggest challenge humanity faces - and, for journalists and media organizations, deciding how to cover it presents its own set of challenges. This course explores journalism paradigms for covering climate, focusing on three important concepts: climate change as an urgent crisis; the climate justice movement; and climate as a security issue - including global, national, community, and personal security.
