Eco-journalism as a tool for solving environmental problems

Eco-journalism plays an important role in modern society. Eco-journalists report on environmental events, analyze and contribute to critical consideration of the actions of governments, corporations and organizations, identifying environmental crimes and policy flaws.

Through their materials, they teach the audience the basics of ecology, sustainable development and the importance of protecting nature, create a dialogue platform for discussing environmental issues in society with the involvement of various groups — from local communities to international organizations. All this contributes to the formation of public opinion in favor of environmental protection.
