Abstract: Abstract The relocation of the capital city from Jakarta to East Kalimantan has sparked a significant controversy. Environmental damage and threats to flora and fauna are among the major concerns receiving public attention. This study aims to identify how these related issues arise and to map the parties involved in the interactions. It employs a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were collected using Google Trends over a three-year period from 2022 to 2024. The results indicate that the development of the new capital city has the potential to damage the environment, and that mining activities and infrastructure development could impact the health of surrounding communities. This research is expected to encourage policymakers to communicate environmental and health issues more transparently to the public and to implement substantial and targeted preventive measures to address the impacts arising from The Nusantara Capital City (IKN).
