Abstract

Sustainability communication is—as the Sustainability Communication Reader clearly shows—an emerging field and unifies a great variety of research approaches and practices. Even if it may be a little too soon to summarize the state of the rapidly changing and evolving debate about the potential and limitations of communicating about and for sustainability, we want to highlight some aspects in concluding—in relation to the academic debate as well as to possible contributions to societal challenges.
