<h3 style="margin:0 0 10px 0">ABSTRACT</h3>
<p>The current political situation surrounding climate change is paradoxical. There is an emerging ecological revolution, with calls for urgent political action and a utopian return to nature. There is also a counter position, a green backlash, with either
political stagnation and a lack of urgency in political responses to climate change; or a call for more techno-capital solutions, not just represented by climate change deniers but also by neo-conservative governments. Sociologists such as Bruno Latour have
described this situation as "the disconnect", referring to the distance between our awareness of the environmental crisis, and our ability to handle it properly. </p>
<p>This presentation will argue that researching popular culture as one of the important social arenas where climate change is communicated can help to address this "disconnect" and help answer questions addressed by climate change communication research, which
are, however, traditionally primarily covered or addressed in news media or other genres of formal science communication.
