The impact of media habits on the environment and the dissemination thereof

Recent studies have shown how much energy and electricity have been consumed by different digital technologies, but less attention has been given to how these online habits impact the environment and how this knowledge is passed on to citizens.  

In this explorative collaborative project, we will look at existing knowledge about the impact of media practices and habits on the environment with the aim of developing new ways of explaining the impact of media habits on the environment and new ways of communicating these challenges. We plan to hold two seminars and develop an educational book together.
