A good way to educate the little ones.
Although they are not normally linked directly, it must be said that video games can be used to educate and teach not only about history, this being the case of the reports that Ubisoft makes when launching an Assassin’s Creed (which do move away from historical reality).
However, there is also a place for science and, as is the case, for climatologysince it is known by many that the planet is currently going through a phase in which rising temperatures can lead to a series of unprecedented natural catastrophes.
Under this premise, it must be said that Minecraft is one of the most popular games in the world, especially among the smallest, which is why it has become the ideal setting to launch a new map dealing with climate change and that is used to educate minors in the United Kingdom.

Without a doubt, this is one of the most positive initiatives for players, since with the scope of Minecraft many children could be made aware of taking actionsince, after all, this is a problem that concerns us all, although some have more responsibilities than others.
We will have to see the scope it has, as well as the possible detractors it may have, since this type of movement is usually accompanied by complaints from people who say that climate change is as real as unicorns, dragons and dolphins. Be that as it may, it only remains to say that Minecraft is available on PC, PS4, Switch and Xbox One, smartphonesamong many other consoles.
