The Role of Media in the Development of Environmental Law

The environment is among the most critical and worrying issues in the modern world. A large number of environmental threats, resource destruction, and pollution are created by non-environmental activities. At the same time, the media has become one of the main instruments for spreading news and culturalization with the invention of new technologies around the world. Therefore, understanding the nature and capabilities of the media plays a significant role in the development of knowledge and social attitudes, which should be considered by policymakers. It is noteworthy that media experts proposed the idea of social responsibility during the ۲۰th century and emphasized the themes of sustainable development. The existence of the media demonstrates the significance of citizens' freedom of speech and thought, leading to social awareness and the accountability of governments and international organizations. This paper will explore how social media could influence public culture in the spread of legalism and the fight against lawlessness in the context of environmental issues.
