Make Climate Change "In Your Face" / Transform Education via the Metaverse

About
#actionable #specific Game where you can explore an awesome, beautiful digital simulation coral reef – The closest thing to going scuba diving without going scuba diving. And even better. You can follow a fish and comprehend complex ecosystems. I'd like to see something similar with a rain forest, and a VR version of this.
Other ideas
- Perhaps even make interactive components where you can play the life of a fish in the game!
- Or “Sim Coral Reef”, like Sim City
Looking for: people who think this is a great idea to brainstorm with about how to achieve it, and people who actually want to do it – designers, engineers, documentarists!

Brainstorm
Make Climate Change "In Your Face" / Transform Education via the Metaverse to be more like Minecraft exploration of virtual spaces. Relates to The idea of constructivist learning from Seymour Pappert’s Mindstorms - if you want to teach kids French don't have the memorize words but rather transform the classroom into France, so create a stall where you can go order a baguette but only if you ask the person in French
- #Idea #ideaSeed #XPrize We need to create accessible ways for people to experience the impact of climate change in way that is “in your face”
<!-- -->
- We need to create more “in your face ways” to experience the impacts of climate change on beautiful ecosystems like coral reefs etc., and more generally share how to create more ways ways from more people to experience how great these things that are already being destroyed. It's easy not to think about them when you don't interact with them.
<!-- -->
- Maybe more documentaries like the Living Sea. Maybe interactive games and experiences that take place in real environments which are degrading, in general this is a use case of the #Metaverse
