The new interdisciplinary Journal of Environmental Media (JEM) invites
long-form (7000 words) and short-form (1000 words) article submissions on
the role of digital culture and emergent media in shaping
environmentally-themed content and activism, constructing environmental
data, and impacting social perceptions of the environment. JEM is a
scholarly platform aimed at bridging work in environmental studies, digital
culture studies, issues of identity and social justice, media industry
studies, science and technology studies (STS), and environmental
communication, covering a range of environmental issues such as climate
change, sea level rise, environmental racism, fossil fuel economics,
Superfund pollution, species extinction, renewable energy technologies,
climate migration and e-waste. We promote work that engages with diverse
methodological and disciplinary approaches, bringing social science
research approaches such as ethnography, strategic messaging and
non-Western communication studies into dialogue with humanities approaches
to production cultures, screen studies and environmental justice. As such,
the Journal of Environmental Media explores a broad landscape of media
forms and practices, including but not limited to: smart devices, machine
learning, wearable interfaces, machine-to-machine communication, popular
cinema and streaming services, social media platforms of environmental
activism, GIS networks, CGI animation, green lifestyle apps and new
developments in augmented reality. Addressing the messages and effects of
environmental media requires that we not only address their expansiveness
and ubiquity, but the social configurations they shape and the new
distributions of power and waste they leave in our wake. In response to a
global moment of environmental, political and philosophical crisis, the
Journal of Environmental Media invites authors to submit new research on
the most pressing and prescient twenty-first century problems regarding the
role of media practice in shaping the relationship between human societies
and the natural environment.

Please email article and review submissions by 1 November 2019, in Harvard
style and with endnotes, to [email protected] for double-blind peer
review. We will respond within six weeks of submission. Address any
editorial, formatting, or other journal queries to the editors at
hvaughan@colorado,edu <[email protected]> or [email protected] and
any reviews queries to [email protected].

Keywords: media studies, environmental studies, augmented reality (AR),
digital culture, new media, virtual reality (VR), environmental
communication, Science and Technology Studies (STS), smart technology,
