#2: EARTH SHAPERS

💚🌎💚

>>>>> Agent Possible, you’re on a roll!🕵️‍♂️

Your next brief from Datamine:

Design a Metaverse for Mining the Future with Kindness!

You’ve proven your creativity, curiosity and determination and now you’re closing in on the Grand Prize Draw if you complete all missions!!!

Now it’s time for your next challenge: Datamine: Earth Shapers!

In this mission, you won’t just imagine a mine…You’ll design a whole future world where smart mining powers clean energy, protects the planet and fuels amazing technology - all while being kind to Earth!

>>>>> Why it matters?💚🌎💚

To power our bright, green future, we need special minerals like lithium and cobalt for clean energy inventions—like solar panels, electric cars, and wind turbines. While we're still working on ways to recycle more and find new materials, mining is part of the journey. We must make mining smarter, cleaner, and kinder to nature. That’s why it’s so exciting to make mining smarter. With your imagination and ideas, you can help lead the way to create new ways to care for the Earth and power the future! 🌱⚡

>>>>> Step 1: Imagine Your Future Mining World!

Close your eyes… picture a future where mining:

  • Happens underground, underwater, or even in space

  • Is powered by robots that plant trees as they go

  • Is hidden beneath magical parks and floating gardens

  • Helps power clean energy for entire cities

Your world could be beautiful, kind and full of surprises. Imagine it vividly in your mind!

>>>>>> Step 2: Research - Get Inspired by Innovative Worlds! 

Before you start drawing your own transportation map, it can help to look at examples of how maps  are made today. They don’t always have to look realistic - some are practical, and some are playful or artistic. Here are a few ideas for where to find inspiration:

Think about:

  • Virtual worlds from your favourite games

  • Futuristic cities, hidden bunkers, underwater domes

  • How people in science fiction imagine clean energy and sustainability

How could YOU create a metaverse world where mining is kind, green, smart and full of life? Now go grab a pen and pencil and sketch it… remember it does not have to be perfect!!

>>>>> Step 3: Design Your Earth Shapers World!

Your challenge is to show: 

  • How resources are gathered gently and safely 

  • How your mining world looks, feels, and works 

  • Cool new machines or systems that help protect nature 

  • How people, animals and robots thrive together

You can draw it, describe it, build it from recycled materials—or even use AI art to bring it to  life!

>>>>> Step 4: Show Your Work! 

Bonus points: show your world to a friend, teacher or family member and ask: 

  • Would they want to live there? 

  • What would they add or change? 

  • What makes your future mining world kind and cool?

Use their feedback to refine your imaginative design.

>>>>> Step 5: Describe Your Earth Shapers World!  

Write 4–6 sentences to explain: 

  1. How mining works in your future world 

  2. What makes it smart, safe, and green 

  3. Your favourite invention or feature 

  4. How people benefit from this kind and clever system

>>>>> Step 6: Give it a Name! 

Time to name your world! 

GreenMine Galaxy, EcoVault 5000, SkyMiner Metaverse—choose a creative, fun, futuristic name that  suits your design.
