Ecostylistics focuses on how environmental conditions shape the stylistic choices of individuals and communities. This discipline emphasizes the importance of stylistic variation in response to ecological change. Ecopragmatics on the other hand is a theoretical approach that examines how ecological contexts influence speakers' communicative practices and pragmatic intentions. The theories presented sufficiently demonstrate how ecological constraints and opportunities shape verbal and non-verbal interactions in various situations. These disciplines can be applied to education media and environmental communication.
