Resumen:
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a technology identified as a
potential solution to mitigate climate change by reducing carbon
emissions from large-scale emitters. If CCS is expected to be adopted
globally, transparent and reliable data and information must be readily
attainable to all stakeholders to support the technology choice and
decision-making process. The implementation of CCS requires effective
communication and collaboration strategies. Still, materials and
communication platforms to inform stakeholders about the potential and
contribution of CCS are predominantly accessible in English since
ongoing projects are mainly located in English-speaking countries. The
Mexican Carbon Capture and Storage platform (MeCCS) was developed as a
digital sharing and learning space for national stakeholders to obtain
and expand their knowledge about CCS technology in Spanish. It was
constructed as a boundary object (BO) to bridge different communities
and disciplines, facilitating communication, understanding, and
cooperation. The platform includes diverse elements that combine science
and art to produce dissemination materials for different audiences to
help build critical thinking and inform them about CCS technology. The
platform confirmed its capacity to transfer and translate knowledge one
year after its launch. It also served to connect different audiences in
Mexico and globally and identify further areas of research and
CCS-related efforts.
