La conceptualización de la crisis climática en medios argentinos. Un estudio desde la lingüística cognitiva y el análisis del discurso.

Abstract

Climate change, as part of a global ecological and environmental crisis, is defined as one of the central issues of our time. As the phenomenon in question occupies an increasing place on the global public agenda, the study of discourses concerning climate change has gained prominence in recent years. Given that the vast majority of these discourses are transmitted and disseminated by mass media, researchers have focused their analysis focus on how media communications on climate change represent scientific knowledge, denialism, and frame specific environmental policies. Current media communication makes great use of multimodal communication, where visual and sound representations play an important role. Within this great interdisciplinary diversity, it is important to point out the place occupied by ecolinguistics.
