Communicating the environment

Edited by ISPRA and SNPA

The challenge of climate change, natural hazards and extreme phenomena, and the need for sustainable use of resources have placed the environment among the central themes of information. How to deal with the narrative of a nature that is fascinating in some ways and frightening in others? How to explain the uncertainties, the environmental disasters, in an often difficult balance between data, news and science? A complex challenge, of today and in future decades, on which we need to pause to take stock. A morning of discussion with key players in the world of environmental information.
