BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) – Researchers at Paul Smith’s College are using virtual reality to bring home the impacts of climate change.
A recent study in The Adirondack Journal of Environmental Studies found that using virtual reality to show the devastation caused by climate change in an area familiar to individuals increased people’s interest in and appreciation for climate change science and motivated them to adopt environmentally and climate-friendly habits.
