In this work package, researchers from information studies, communication studies, ecology and environmental social science explore how information technologies, data and society shape environmental meaning-making. Focused studies zoom in on three domains: Environmental apps in everyday life, ESG and traceability in the supply chain, and advocacy issues. They ask, how is data created, shared, and (re)assembled across applications, services, people, organisations, and other actors? What are the implications of this for environmental communication and governance? An observatory serves as a collaborative platform for monitoring trends and as a testing ground for developing new strategies to critically examine this rapidly changing field.
