The session introduced participants to the En-ROADS Climate Simulator, an interactive policy simulation tool that enables users to examine the potential impacts of different climate interventions. Through scenario-based discussions and simulation exercises, participants explored how policy decisions concerning energy, transportation, land use, and other sectors influence global temperature trajectories, emissions, economic growth, air quality, and other climate-related outcomes.
The workshop emphasised the importance of systems thinking, interdisciplinary perspectives, and science-based policymaking in addressing climate change. It also highlighted the role of informed leadership and collaborative action in advancing effective climate solutions.
The programme provided participants with practical insights into the application of climate simulation tools for understanding complex sustainability challenges and evaluating pathways towards a low-carbon future.
