A big thank you to everyone who joined us last week for the symposium ‘Tempers and Temperatures: The Rising Heat of Digital Ecologies’. It was an inspiring and thought-provoking day dedicated to exploring climate change disinformation and its impact on democracy and public trust.
We are especially grateful to our speakers Gabriele Colombo, Mijke van der Drift, Sophie Dyer, Joey Grostern, Jennie King, Sabine Niederer, and Sorab Roustayar for sharing their expertise, insights, and critical perspectives. Their contributions sparked meaningful discussions about how misinformation shapes public debate, influences policy, and affects the way societies respond to climate challenges. The first session explored how climate narratives are shaped by power, ethics, and disinformation, while the second session focused on how climate data enters the public domain through journalism, media, and artificial intelligence. The final session examined how to foster resilience and cultivate shared imaginaries for climate action.
We value the participation of everyone who joined the discussions, asked questions, and contributed throughout the day. Your engagement made the symposium a vibrant space for exchange and reflection. A heartfelt thank you also to the Erasmus+ partners from Barcelona, London, Reykjavík, Sarajevo, Tallinn and Vilnius, and to all our brilliant NLN students, whose dedication made this event possible.
