What is the Metaverse? And its potential to protect the environment.

What is the Metaverse?

The Metaverse is a digital copy of our own world that we can interact in. By "digital copy", we mean there will be a digital landscape in the Metaverse that mirrors real life places, from factories to national parks. We can interact in the EnviroVerse by conducting work meetings, to working out, to playing video games.


As of right now, all you need to enter the Metaverse is a VR headset. Some developers like Meta are even in the process of creating gloves to wear in person that will simulate touch from within the Metaverse!


How can the Metaverse help the environment?


The Metaverse has unlimited potential for protecting the environment. This is why Enviro.AI is focused on creating what we call the Enviroverse. The Enviroverse harnesses Metaverse technologies and applies it to specific environmental tasks that can help make our world a better, more sustainable place. Consider the following scenarios:


  • You own a big factory and everything seems to be running smoothly. You go into the Metaverse and discover in the infrared vision mode that one of your factory stacks is leaking a gas that is invisible to the human eye. You are able to take this information, fix the leak in real life, and prevent an accident from occuring.
  • You buy a new plot of land and want to build a house on it. You go into the Metaverse and look at what the property looked like 30 years ago. You find out that there was an oil drill in the same spot as your house, and there are remains of the oil drilling site underground. This information helps protect the wellbeing of your family and inform your investments.
  • You are an auditor in Texas whose business partner is in New York. Both of you enter the Metaverse, walk around a digital copy of a real facility in Louisiana together, and perform due diligence in real-time -- saving both you and your partner time and money.
  • There's a chemical fire at large energy plant. In reality, one cannot get close to the facility until the fire has been safely extinguished. In the Metaverse, one can walk through the fire, find its cause, and identify potential ways to extinguish it faster in real life.
  • And so much more!


The possibilities are endless. For more updates on the Enviroverse, follow us on social (below) and see our website www. enviro-verse.com.
