New and tactical media can help spread environmental education and awareness through their interactive and participatory nature. They allow for sharing of diverse perspectives on environmental issues in a way that encourages deeper democratic discussion. Tactical media in particular uses low-cost and accessible tools like video, photography and online platforms to draw attention to issues in a way that is sometimes provocative or controversial in order to spark conversation around topics people feel excluded from mainstream discussions. Both new and tactical media offer opportunities to raise awareness of environmental problems and solutions in a way that is open, collaborative and extends the impact of outreach efforts.
