Seminar paper from the year 2024 in the subject American Studies - Linguistics, grade: 2, http://www.uni-jena.de/ (Institut für Anglistik/ Amerikanistik), course: Text and Discourse Linguistics, language: English, abstract: This paper analyzes the discursive strategies employed by the leaders of Fridays for Future movement to effectively convey their messages and shape the audience's perceptions within the broader climate change discourse. Climate change has been a significant subject, especially in recent years when its consequences are getting worse e.g. the global temperature is always breaking record. However, there exist various perspectives regarding climate change, such as resistance to change or active advocacy for environmental preservation. In this scenario, the significance of climate activists is growing. When talking about climate activists, the leaders of the Fridays for Future (FFF) movement, Greta Thunberg and Luisa Neuerbau, must be mentioned. This movement has gained substantial recognition and mobilized millions of individuals across the globe to demand urgent action on climate change. One of the ways they mobilize is through speeches, so how they use language as well as discursive strategies is one important factor in persuading the audience and showing their ideology. However, as far as I researched, there is no paper talking about the use of discursive strategies in their speeches.

This is an open access book. Internationalization is one aspect of becoming qualified in this globalization era, especially for higher education levels. In this particular era when everyone is locked down due to Covid 19 Virus, the academic activity must still run. It is correlated with vision of Universitas Muhammadiyah Surabaya as an international standard university so that it can compete with universities at national or international level. During Pandemy, many obstacles occur then it is also led with many opportunities.

The world has witnessed extraordinary economic growth, poverty reduction and increased life expectancy and population since the end of WWII, but it has occurred at the expense of undermining life support systems on Earth and subjecting future generations to the real risk of destabilising the planet. This timely book exposes and explores this colossal environmental cost and the dangerous position the world is now in. Standing up for a Sustainable World is written by and about key individuals who have not only understood the threats to our planet, but also become witness to them and confronted them.

The clock is relentlessly ticking! Our world teeters on a knife-edge between a peaceful and prosperous future for all, and a dark winter of death and destruction that threatens to smother the light of civilization. Within 30 years, in the 2030 decade, six powerful 'drivers' will converge with unprecedented force in a statistical spike that could tear humanity apart and plunge the world into a new Dark Age. Depleted fuel supplies, massive population growth, poverty, global climate change, famine, growing water shortages and international lawlessness are on a crash course with potentially catastrophic consequences. In the face of both doomsaying and denial over the state of our world, Colin Mason cuts through the rhetoric and reams of conflicting data to muster the evidence to illustrate a broad picture of the world as it is, and our possible futures. Ultimately his message is clear; we must act decisively, collectively and immediately to alter the trajectory of humanity away from catastrophe. Offering over 100 priorities for immediate action, The 2030 Spike serves as a guidebook for humanity through the treacherous minefields and wastelands ahead to a bright, peaceful and prosperous future in which all humans have the opportunity to thrive and build a better civilization. This book is powerful and essential reading for all people concerned with the future of humanity and planet earth.

By 1979, we knew all that we know now about the science of climate change - what was happening, why it was happening, and how to stop it. Over the next ten years, we had the very real opportunity to stop it. Obviously, we failed.Nathaniel Rich's groundbreaking account of that failure - and how tantalizingly close we came to signing binding treaties that would have saved us all before the fossil fuels industry and politicians committed to anti-scientific denialism - is already a journalistic blockbuster, a full issue of the New York Times Magazine that has earned favorable comparisons to Rachel Carson's Silent Spring and John Hersey's Hiroshima. Rich has become an instant, in-demand expert and speaker. A major movie deal is already in place. It is the story, perhaps, that can shift the conversation.In the book Losing Earth, Rich is able to provide more of the context for what did - and didn't - happen in the 1980s and, more important, is able to carry the story fully into the present day and wrestle with what those past failures mean for us in 2019. It is not just an agonizing revelation of historical missed opportunities, but a clear-eyed and eloquent assessment of how we got to now, and what we can and must do before it's truly too late.

Collecting the speeches that sparked a global movement, and iconic images of those who made it happen, No One Is Too Small to Make A Difference is a rallying cry for why we must all wake up and fight to protect the living planet, no matter how powerless we feel.

The 'Western' green movement has grown rapidly in the last three decades: green ministers are in government in several European countries, Greenpeace has millions of paying supporters, and green direct action against roads, GM crops, the WTO and neo-liberalism, have become ubiquitous. The author argues that 'greens' share a common ideological framework but are divided over strategy. Using social movement theory and drawing on research from many countries, he shows how the green movement became more differentiated over time, as groups had to face the task of deciding what kind of action was appropriate. In the breadth of its coverage and its novel focus on the relationship between green ideas and action, this book makes an important contribution to the understanding of green politics.
