Sustainability City map taps directly into Microsoft’s Annual Sustainability Report. With the map, Minecraft players can explore some of the core themes and ongoing goals of Microsoft in terms of sustainability efforts. Users can download the Sustainability City map from the Minecraft Marketplace under the “Education Collection” category. As you may expect, the map is also available for Minecraft: Education Edition. Mojang says subscribers to Education Edition can download six accompany lessons. These provide students more information about environmental causes including having sustainability in the home, to waste management and electricity saving.
