The Anthropocene, marked by significant anthropogenic impacts on a global scale, demands a completely new paradigm regarding the human-Earth alliance. It would not manifest as a more inclusive, culturally diverse, and holistic approach to the world, but rather at a seemingly one-world scale. The singularity of one-world universalism is rooted in the principle of human exceptionalism – the notion that humanity is at the centre of everything – even down to claims of structural determination on geological timescales. Our epistemological conservative view is that lifeworld is limited to existing as an ecological living space and the Earth is fixed as a mere background of our world-dwelling. At the same time, the Earth is silently yet progressively moving towards a crisis of uncertainty. Against a grand narrative of western universal assumptions in defining the Anthropocene, this article initially restructures the metanarrative by characterizing a proposal: a multiple-realization beyond speculative hermeneutics capable of fostering pluriversalization of reality layers at the geological constellation. This proposed concept explores the intersection of the geo(pluriverse)logical Anthropocene by acknowledging the interdependence and multiplication of realities, while appreciating and preserving the existence of many worlds alongside our precious Earth. It highlights the distinction between the realization of the Anthropocene in two contexts: the world and the Earth.

The Anthropocene era describes human activity as the decisive factor in creating environmental imbalance on the planet. This emergency is intensifying the need for journalism to raise readers’ awareness about the climate crisis. This study concentrates on the coverage generated by the 27th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change ( COP27 ). Using a mixed quantitative and qualitative method, The Guardian ’s international digital version was analysed to find out the scope of journalistic quality on the climate issue, applying the variables accredited with the Journalistic Value Added (JVA) analysis technique to the sample ( N = 238). The results show that the editorial policy of commitment to the climate emergency taken on by The Guardian coincides with essential criteria of quality journalism, making the medium a point of reference, although misproportion still persist such as gender representation among the sources.

The scientific consensus on the existence, the human origin, the seriousness of the consequences and the urgency of adopting immediate solutions to climate change is growing, as successive reports by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change have shown. The alteration of global climate patterns experienced in recent years confirms the worst prediction models, and yet there are still voices that question these facts. This study proposes to examine the interpretative frameworks underpinning public discussion of climate denialism on the online video platform YouTube. To this end, it presents an analysis of the 50 most popular videos under the label of climate denialism in Spanish, paying attention to the key issues and figures on which the denialist ideology is articulated and the attitude of support, neutrality or rejection on the part of those responsible for the content. The results obtained show the generalized rejection of the denialist discourse among Spanish-speaking content creators, who resort to experienced sources and contrasted resources to refute these arguments, as well as the politicization of scientific knowledge in terms of debate, uncertainty, mistrust and lack of commitment to deal with the consequences.

The power gaps nested in the political ecology of socioenvironmental conflicts often impose critical impasses on the attainment of justice. Therefore, negotiation is accepted as an alternate tool for environmental justice, especially to avoid the prolonged sufferings linked to uneven power relations between conflicting parties, unpredictable outcomes, mounting expenses and the time taken to get a decision through formal judicial trials or arbitrations. Against this backdrop, the American movie Erin Brockovich is selected to highlight the importance of negotiation as a tool to mitigate environmental conflicts. The movie presents how an ordinary woman, who has many blemishes and liabilities, transcends personal limitations to accomplish appreciable socioenvironmental justice through grassroots mobilization and negotiation. Using close study interpretive methods, the movie Erin Brockovich is analysed as a case study in environmental leadership, distributive negotiation and procedural justice.

Modern law is based in the existence of a constitutional order, guaranteeing the predictability of law. Since we are entering in new geological era, according to the contributions of Earth System Science, defined mostly by complexity and uncertainty, this hegemonic idea of order in law is challenged. This contribution explores how constitutional order was linked to the process of colonization of nature within the capitalist world system and how this process results into a planetary transformation. Discussing the Faustic expectations embedded in the some Anthropocene narratives, associated with the human manipulation of Earth System, the paper considers the profound consequences of the complexity of the intertwined ecosocial global system, and explores how supercomplexity gives way to a legal disorder which resolves itself into conflict and dialog.

Greta Thunberg pushed forward a new collective action frame for the climate movement with the necessary resonance to mobilize millions of people. However, the coronavirus outbreak forced Thunberg to adjust her strategy in an abrupt way, and the resonance of the activist’s frame decreased after achieving its peak in 2019. How has Thunberg’s frame evolved before, during and after the pandemic? Can we attribute the loss of resonance to a failed frame adaptation? This article studies the composition and resonance of the Swedish activist’s frame on Twitter between August 2018 and December 2022, making use of a methodological design that combines qualitative and quantitative methods to analyse 61 public interventions and 1692 tweets. The results show that, despite adapting successfully to the pandemic, the loss of the core elements of the original frame provoked a misalignment between her framing strategy and her storytelling, which reduced Thunberg’s ability to provide resonance.
Greta Thunberg为气候运动提出了一个新的集体行动框架,引起了数百万人的共鸣。然而,冠状病毒的爆发迫使桑伯格突然调整了策略,活动家框架的共鸣在2019年达到顶峰后有所下降。在大流行之前、期间和之后,Thunberg的框架是如何演变的?我们能否将共振的丧失归因于失败的帧适应?本文研究了2018年8月至2022年12月期间瑞典活动家在推特上的框架的构成和共鸣,利用结合定性和定量方法的方法论设计来分析61次公共干预和1692条推文。结果表明,尽管成功地适应了大流行,但失去了原始框架的核心元素,导致她的框架策略和她的故事叙述之间出现了错位,这降低了滕伯格提供共鸣的能力。

In this viewpoint we intend to argue two things. First, that any attempt at effective communication must consider not only the causes and effects of climate change, but also the political measures proposed to address those causes and effects, since both influence public perceptions and behaviours. Second, that it is necessary to better understand the processes by which citizens make sense of climate change, as well as the role that their position in the social structure plays in shaping such perceptions. According to our recent research, the most sceptical or denialist people ignore the problem due to their (perceived) difficulties to change ways of life, and this implies that any attempt to modify this perception should go beyond climate change policies in the strict sense, considering other political measures to compensate these (perceived) deficits and help people to be able to consider a change of ways of life.

Innovating in preaching is something that is very important in responding to the challenges of the times. In modern times like this, sometimes people get bored with face-to-face da'wah models. In today's contemporary society, people must be approached with something that makes them interested. Social media has managed to achieve the highest popularity in the all-digital era, now one of the most loved by the global community today is Instagram social media. As a prestigious platform in this era. The emergence of Instagram social media which is widely used by various groups of people in communicating and exchanging information has not escaped the attention of da'wah activists to preach. Therefore, this research is a study that tries to describe the use of Instagram as a media for preaching the @harakah.id account. This type of research is descriptive qualitative research. To achieve the objectives of this study using the method of content analysis. While the data collection technique is done by observing and documenting. The data source used in this study uses the content @harakah.id uploaded in the month of Muharram 1443 H on Instagram regarding the use of persuasive communication from Mar'at and the theory of da'wah messages by Al-Bayanuni which divides da'wah messages in the aspects of faith, sharia and morals. The results of this study indicate that the da'wah messages in the @harakah.id account during the month of Muharram 1443 H contain 3 aspects, namely aqidah, sharia and morals. As well as the application of da'wah communication strategies on the Instagram account @harakah.id there are 2, namely rational preaching persuasive communication and emotional persuasion.
