Education

Climate change education is the cornerstone of our work. We are interested in developing visualization tools that help communities understand and engage with the decisions they can make to impact global and local change. Our goal and challenge is to allow Delta youth to be a vital part of the climate change communication process. The game-platform will not only inform the youth of key concepts related to climate change, but also empower them to learn for themselves, and to become more engaged with climate change challenges that are vital to their future. The videogame aims to have two kinds of positive outcome:

  1. Based on the intense media interest in the research to-date, the project has the potential to create a ‘buzz’ in the community and strengthen support for local climate action by involving parents, local organizations and perhaps even local decision-makers, with schools playing a leading role;
  2.  This new educational model for school and community engagement, if successful, could be replicated in other communities across BC and Canada.
