Climate change poses a challenge to countries across the world, with news media being an important source of information on the issue. To understand how and how much news media cover climate change, this study compares coverage in ten countries from the Global North and the Global South between 2006 and 2018 (N = 71,674). Based on a panel analysis, we illustrate that news media attention varies across countries and is often associated with political, scientific, and (partly) societal focusing events. Based on an automated content analysis, we also find that news media do not only cover ecological changes or climate science, but that they focus predominantly on the societal dimension of climate change: They emphasize how humans are aware of, affected by, battle, or cause climate change. Overall, the study illustrates important differences between the Global North and the Global South. While countries from the Global North cover climate change more frequently, countries from the Global South focus more on its challenges and implications for society at large, i.e., the societal dimension of climate change.

全球新闻媒体中的气候变化:对 10 个国家气候变化报道中的问题关注度和主题的自动分析(2006-2018)

气候变化对世界各国构成挑战,新闻媒体是有关该问题的重要信息来源。为了了解新闻媒体如何以及在多大程度上报道气候变化,本研究比较了 2006 年至 2018 年间全球北方和南方十个国家的报道(N = 71,674)。基于小组分析,我们说明新闻媒体的关注因国家而异,并且通常与政治、科学和(部分)社会焦点事件有关。基于自动内容分析,我们还发现新闻媒体不仅涵盖生态变化或气候科学,而且主要关注气候变化的社会层面:它们强调人类如何意识到、受其影响、战斗或造成气候变化。总体而言,该研究说明了全球北方和全球南方之间的重要差异。虽然全球北方国家更频繁地报道气候变化,但全球南方国家更关注气候变化的挑战和对整个社会的影响,即气候变化的社会层面。
