For reference:
The 29th UN Climate Change Conference (COP) will be held in Baku from November 11 to 22. This year, the Ukrainian pavilion focuses on the recovery theme – its walls are made of ecological paper with living seeds. After the conference, fragments of the walls will be planted in Ukraine's partner countries to symbolize joint actions that will grow into the future.
At the UN climate conference (COP29), Ukrainian organizations showcased a 3D installation featuring "real reality glasses" depicting the impact of Russian environmental crimes on Ukraine and the world.
Wearing "reality glasses" at the conference, guests could witness the true impact of the war on the environment. This included the death of dolphins in the Black Sea, forest fires, animal casualties, the demolition of the Kakhovka HPP dam, attacks on the Ukrainian power grid, and the looming danger of a nuclear explosion at the NPP.
This installation utilizes 360⁰ technologies, VR glasses, and stereo sound to create an immersive experience. Its purpose is to allow viewers to witness the daily disasters caused by Russian aggression in Ukraine.
