The results of research are discussed at academic conferences and published as research papers, which are widely shared. However, since such information is highly specialized, it has been disseminated in society through educational and outreach activities. Although such activities have been successful, the information has been organized according to the logic of the disseminator, and the system is not necessarily responsive to social needs. Scientific information obtained through research in the earth and planetary sciences is important for the construction of a sustainable society. In order to build a better relationship between the Earth and planetary science community and the public, we will ask for suggestions from person in various positions involved in geoscience, such as spokespersons for research institutions, URA, science communicators and so on.
