Climate Media Lab

At the Climate Media Lab, we use quantitative methods to study how climate change is covered in the media. Using machine learning and natural language processing, we perform large-scale analyses on various aspects of climate change coverage. These include the topics discussed, the scientific knowledge communicated, the sources used, and the frames and narratives employed by different actors and outlets.
