This course challenges participants to use the En-ROADS (Energy Rapid Overview And Decision-Support) simulator to create a scenario that successfully addresses climate change while considering implications across the economy, environment, and society. An assignment is given following the En-ROADS Climate Action Simulation game experience. You will work with the En-ROADS simulation model to create a scenario that can mitigate global warming to the internationally agreed target of less than 2°C, and ideally 1.5°C. In addition, you will consider the economic, political, and social issues relevant to successful implementation of your policies.
