Abstract: *The Green Pen: Environmental Journalism in India and South Asia* examines how media in the region reports on key environmental issues. With insights from influential journalists, the book surveys the evolution of environmental reporting and explores specialized areas such as science and health communication, wildlife, water, disasters, and photojournalism. It also addresses public communication strategies, gendered dimensions of environmental issues, and the role of grassroots movements. Concluding with a tribute to Anil Agarwal, the volume serves as both a historical overview and a practical guide, emphasizing the media’s vital role in shaping environmental awareness and policy in South Asia.
