Greenwashing Culture (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Greenwashing Culture examines culture's complicity with our environmental crisis, arguing that first, culture creates its own carbon footprint and second, it provides the gas and petroleum industries with social licenses to operate by accepting sponsorship that imbues corporations from these sectors with a pro-social image. Using BP, Chevron and Shell as case studies, Miller argues that oil companies make cynical use of culture as a means of 'greenwashing' their public image, while also considering the work of activists who resist such complicity, such as dissident artists and non-governmental organizations.
