Reviews
“The power of corporations has increased once again financially and culturally. Thaker offers research-based insights into how trends like climate change and artificial intelligence matter to the bottom line of profits and the planet. Today, no one can escape the impacts of or corporations—or climate change. Thaker wades into this complicated moment to help us reflect on where we’ve gone wrong and where we could go right. The phrase “business as usual” has become obsolete in this moment. Whether facing backlash and limitations due to climate change or positive press and opportunities, anyone running or working in a corporation needs to reckon with the climate.” Thaker provides a primer for the next generation of business leaders--with no easy answers, but evidence-based nuance so readers can be smart about thinking through the challenges and possibilities of this moment.” Phaedra C. Pezzullo, Professor, College of Media, Communication and Information, University of Colorado Boulder, US. “Authored by a renowned expert in climate change communication, this book provides a comprehensive analysis of corporate responses to climate challenges. It explores critical topics such as greenwashing, public trust, AI-driven transparency, and stakeholder engagement, blending the latest academic research, case studies, and best practices. A must-read for students, scholars, and business leaders in climate change, sustainability, and ESG communication.” Ganga Dhanesh, Associate Professor, Department of Communication, University of Maryland, US. “Corporate Communication about Climate Change: Villains, Victims, and White Knights is a wonderful and concise exploration of how corporations shape public discourse on climate issues. The book showcases the strategies and challenges related to climate communication and is both a critical and pragmatic guide that invites its readers to rethink corporate roles in environmental stewardship.” Øyvind Ihlen, Professor, Department of Media and Communication, University of Oslo, Norway.
