Abstract
As the global environmental pollution and ecological destruction have become increasingly serious issues, more and more people have paid attention to environmental problems and have participated in environmental campaign in different ways. As a broad and special form of advertising, Public Service Advertisements (PSAs) play an important role in propagating environmental issues and environmental knowledge. Nowadays when the world economy, mess media and environmental protection are being globalized, we should take the responsibility to devote our limited power to protect the environment. Therefore, further study of the relationship between pro-environmental PSAs and social culture is of practical significance. The thesis attempts to conduct a comparative analysis on pro-environmental PSAs in Chinese and English through linguistic and western rhetorical approaches into the cross-cultural study. The findings of this thesis are expected to be of great help in better designs of them, so as to promote the communication of environmental protection between China and west.
Keywords: PSAs; environmental protection; linguistic features; cultural difference
