摘要
Despite the promising application of Big Data analytics to environmental contexts significant challenges remain regarding the communication of data-derived insights and data itself. Addressing issues at the intersection of Big Data analytic technologies and environmental communication are a pair of United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) initiatives; the Data for Environmental Alliance (DEAL) and the World Environmental Situation Room (WESR). Both initiatives seek to address communicative hindrances associated with adopting and using Big Data analytic technologies on the international stage and offer a welcome addition to the environmental communication toolbox. This commentary considers these initiatives by providing a brief overview of them and potential obstacles to their success.
