In this article, we address the interdisciplinary problem of climate change, with emphasis on the interface between Science, Environment and Communication. We understand that climate crisis researchers are important to making their studies understandable to society and conveying information about the urgency of the issue. In 2021, we interviewed 15 researchers to understand how they perceive themselves as disseminators of their knowledge and understand communication actions to cope with the situation. The interpretative analysis was operationalized by thematic categories. The results point to a lack of scientific dissemination practices by researchers, who prefers to be mediated by communication professionals.The results also point to an instrumental understanding of the communication processes.
