Climate Futures is a new set of immersive worlds and lessons developed for Minecraft: Education Edition in partnership with Met Office, the UK’s national meteorological agency. In these immersive worlds and lessons, students ages 8-16 can explore climate change and the effects on local economies, ecosystems, and communities through a meaningful set of stories based on real-world events.

Through a set of collaborative challenges, students experience how climate change is impacting lives and livelihoods from forests to farms. These lessons equip students with the information, empathy, and hope they’ll need to help protect our future on the planet. ​Students will study the food cycle and supply chains from field to table, and visit a logging camp deep in the forest to build a tree farm, studying the impact on our environment over time. ​Find more detail and access this learning content from our website. https://aka.ms/ClimateFuturesCollection

Teaching climate change across the curriculum helps prepare learners for future jobs, build skills like problem solving and critical thinking, and create empathy for how climate change is impacting communities and habitats.​ For more content like this, check out our Climate & Sustainability subject kit at https://education.minecraft.net/en-us/homepage.
