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.
