This book explores how China's media narrate climate policy and climate change. With the rapid growth of economy and carbon emissions, China has been seen as having a key role in addressing

climate change and receives substantial attention from the media. In the

Chinese coverage, climate change issues can be interpreted as various concerns

and ideas involving the dimensions of the economy, energy and emissions, public

involvement, science and ecology, and responsibility. In this sense, a discourse

approach can be used to understand how the newspapers construct the climate

change discourse and discourse networks in the coverage. This study selects

three different newspapers in China, namely People's

Daily, China Daily and Southern Weekend. This book will interest scholars of Chinese politics, environmentalists, and media studies scholars.
