Summary:

The fundamental idea of the present volume is that an engagement with the genres involved in the climate debate can be a key to understanding, developing, and perhaps even changing the debate. The book’s starting point is twofold. On the one hand, a well-known problem, the gap between the near-unanimous agreement in science about the basics of human made, or anthropogenic, climate change (ACC), and the widespread lack of accep-tance of this agreement in the public sphere. On the other, a field of study, genre research, which has been through an explosive development during the last three decades, but is still a long way from having made its full impact on research and is largely unknown beyond the academy.
