The Environmental Communication Resource Center (ECRC) was established in 1996 as a resource center for information, research and discussion concerning Environmental Communication. ECRC is housed in the School of Communication at Northern Arizona University, located in Flagstaff, Arizona at an elevation of 7,000 feet beneath the majestic San Francisco Peaks. Founders and co-directors of the Center are professors Lea J. Parker and C. Brant Short. The mission of ECRC is to promote scholarship, pedagogy and public service in all aspects of Environmental Communication.
We define Environmental Communication as the communication of environmental messages to audiences by all means and through all channels. Environmental Communication may be considered a process which involves both communicators and audiences and is achieved through effective message delivery, interactive listening, and public discussion and debate. We envision such communication as the foundation for establishing relationships between people and the environment and as a means for enhancing environmental literacy and sustainable environmental practices.
