When individuals discuss combating climate change, they usually refer to environmental initiatives such as renewable energy, tree planting, sustainability, and so on. But there is one area that is often forgotten. One which truly sets the course for everything that matters in the battle against climate change: language, culture and climate change communication.


The purpose of this blog is to discuss how translation services and ecolinguistics affect climate change communication. Let us look at the significance of localizing climate change communication, the framework of environmental concerns and climate change, and the narratives we present to build environmental advocacies.


But first,
What exactly is Environment Translation?

In a literal sense, the services offering a translation of any documents relating to the environment, its consequences, protection, and laws are Environmental Translation Services. But, if you take a deep look, you will understand that the concepts of environmental translation are diverse and vast and thus need precise knowledge of the language and scientific terms related to the environment.


Why is Environment Translation relevant?

Let us take a look at a few reasons why environmental translation services exist.


1. Current Trends in the Green Economy

According to scientific evidence, ecosystems face enormous environmental degradation. We have been used to increased levels of consumerism and a disposable lifestyle, as favored by globalization processes.


Many international and local governments are working to instill a green mindset in communities to preserve the natural conditions necessary for global prosperity, stability, and equality. Moreover, numerous strategies and actions are being implemented.


Over the next 20 years, the corporate world is expected to invest in renewable energy. Renewable energy consumption reached a record high in 2019, accounting for more than 40% of primary energy growth, according to BP study.


The European Commission has established a goal for its member countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by more than half by 2030, as well as to meet specific clean energy targets, notably through the use of wind, solar, combined cycle, and water power.


Scandinavian environmental agreements set them apart from the rest of the world, since they are pioneers in bio-propane production. Sweden, for example, has approved a plan to erect wind turbines that will offer clean energy to over 300,000 Swedish families over the next 15 years, demonstrating the region's strong growth in the sustainable energy business.


Meanwhile, the number of Spanish businesses committing to constructing wind turbines or solar panels is increasing.
In the business world, corporations may generate a significant number of patents, production techniques, specification sheets, and websites as they try to get their products and services ready for sale in new markets.

2. Long-standing Concern: Environmental Protection

Climate action and environmental conservation are not new subjects for environment translation services. Since ancient Rome, people have fought against air pollution and resource exploitation in mining.


It reflects the efforts of individuals, organizations, and governments to protect the natural environment, ecosystems and therefore the natural capital. The objectives are to protect natural resources and the current natural environment, repair the harm caused, and, if possible, reverse unfavorable trends.


Conservation of the environment is now an inseparable aspect of many nations' socioeconomic landscapes, and it plays a role in both construction projects and the production of food and other commodities. As contaminated air and water are not the problems of a single country, globalization presents both opportunities and challenges.

3. Environmental Education

Bringing awareness about key environmental issues includes educating people about it. The easiest way to do this is in a language they all understand. Education and knowledge are the foundations of change, and understanding and valuing communication across national boundaries and continents is a critical instrument.


Environment translation services are critical in sharing environmental protection information.


4. Environmental Translation Services: Extending Environmental Protection Beyond National Boundaries

The EU's most recent environmental program aims to accomplish various goals while encouraging collaboration at all levels.


Professional environment translation services significantly contribute to the formation of seamless and courteous communication, which is widely recognized as a crucial foundation for making critical environmental decisions.


Keeping this in mind, companies that provide solutions and services to support renewable energy growth will require the services of a professional environment translation agency and technical translators who have a thorough understanding of the energy sector, its processes, applicable technologies, and technical terminology.

5. The Indian Context

India is one of the countries which is already severely affected by Climate Change - from frequent climate disturbances like cloud bursts, flash floods, famines to the COVID 19 pandemic, it has already started facing the consequences of Global Warming and Environmental Degradation. Yet, most Indians dismiss it as something that will affect humanity in the future or that will affect other countries. Reliable data and information about Climate Change and Mitigation is not available in many Indian languages which explains the overall levels of awareness - it is therefore quintessential to spread awareness and right action plans in the regional languages of India.

In Conclusion,


The availability of relevant environmental publications and documents in multiple languages aids in raising global awareness of environmental conservation. On the other hand, contracts with universal rights and duties help preserve standards and create new levels of environmental protection.
