Earth discourses: theorizing the environment for global media studies -- Endless growth: neoliberalism and global media's promethean logic -- Neo-Malthusian entertainment: the limits of green tv -- Battle of the blogosphere: Monsanto versus the world -- Amazonian indigenous green: media and the ecologically noble savage -- Conclusion: earth discourses and the question of agency in the media commons.

Summary: Today's global media sustains a potent new environmental consciousness. Paradoxically, it also serves as a far-reaching platform that promotes the unsustainable consumption ravaging our planet. Patrick Murphy musters theory, fieldwork and empirical research to map how the media communicates today's many distinct, competing and even antagonistic environmental discourses.
