Computer simulations can be super helpful in school. For example, instead of just reading about space, kids could use a computer to discover Mars or any other planets and see what they look like. It makes learning more fun and helps understand things better.
Simulations can also help us learn about the Earth. Computer applications and games can be created to show what might happen if the Earth gets too warm, like how ice might melt and cause the ocean to rise. These simulations are great for understanding big problems like climate change. If we see this scenario on a computer, we would better understand how important it is to protect our planet.
In my opinion, these tools should motivate not only scientists, but everyone, to take action to reduce pollution, plastic use and anything else that harms the environment. We only have one planet and there is no backup.
