The Arts and Humanities on Environmental and Climate Change - Broadening Approaches to Research and Public Engagement (Paperback)

1. The book demonstrates how art, history and cultural heritage can help to create a climate-literate public that responds to environmental issues and climate change in an informed way. 2. Sutton shows how arts and humanities approaches to environmental and climate change can engage a far wider public in learning, conversation and action than science can alone. This will make the book most interesting to readers looking for ways to broaden engagement with environmental and climate issues. The ideas shared within the book should also act as inspiration for a broad spectrum of practitioners, particularly those writing, designing, and curating public engagement materials in museums and for the media. 3. Unlike competing titles, the proposed book references the growing body of broad-reaching material (instead of focusing on single-topic research (archaeology), or a single genre of museums (science or natural history)). Unlike other titles, it also collects usually isolated and distinctive examples into one publication.
