Narrativa mediática sobre los beneficios e impactos de la producción de hidrógeno verde: exploración de cuestiones ambientales y sociales
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
El artículo analiza la narrativa de los medios brasileños en la comunicación sobre la producción de hidrógeno verde en portales de noticias. Se adoptó la metodología de minería de texto en Google Noticias, utilizando el término “hidrógeno verde”, para realizar el análisis de las
publicaciones mediante el uso del software Voyant Tools. Los resultados evidenciaron el potencial de Brasil para la producción de hidrogeno verde y destacaron las inversiones destinadas a la instalación del hub de hidrógeno verde en el estado de Ceará. Sin embargo, los médios no informaron a la sociedad sobre los posibles impactos ambientales y sociales de dicha producción. El enfoque selectivo en la cobertura noticiosa no proporciona una comprensión integral de los desafíos asociados a una transición energética justa y refuerza el poder de los medios en la construcción de un discurso desarrollista idealizado, exento de impactos ambientales y sociales.
