(Reuters] – “Arcadia Earth”, an immersive art exhibition that focuses on climate change in New York City, is a digitally augmented environment.

Visitors can wander through the immersive rooms, which are filled with interactive installations such as the one that is made up of 44,000 plastic bags, the number used by New York State every minute prior to the ban on plastic bags. They wear AR headsets, which bring the installation to life and teach environmental facts.

Vettori explained that Manhattan’s exhibit was meant to be fun.

Vettori explained that Vettori’s intention was for people to get involved and… to convey a message. This technique is super fun and it works for everyone, I really believe.

HoloLens’ tour of Arcadia Earth, created with Enklu metaverse platform company and shows ecosystems such forests and open seas. Also highlights environmental issues like single-use plastic waste or overfishing.

Vettori stated, “I have children and feel the responsibility for their future.” Vettori said, “If we do not take action today, the future will be difficult.” “I want to be one of those people who will not give up on the idea that we do everything possible.

The proceeds of tickets will go to planting mangroves, which can store climate-warming CO2 better than any other tree.
