En-roads is a simulation tool for understanding how we can achieve our climate goals through changes in energy, land use, consumption, agriculture, and other policies. The simulator focuses on how changes in global GDP, energy efficiency, technological innovation, and carbon price influence carbon emissions, global temperature, and other factors.

1. Current status
Please give a short presentation for about 10 minutes, discussing the possible consequences of climate change on your country and assessing your country’s progress regarding the Climate Action Tracker.
Country Outline
- Asia: https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg2/chapter/chapter-10/
- North America: https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg2/chapter/chapter-14/
- Russia: https://www.dni.gov/files/documents/climate2030_russia.pdf
Country: Current status
- How many GHG emissions does your country have? What are the main sources of emissions? Which sources of energy does the country have?
- According to the Climate Action Tracker, how is your country performing? What is your country doing to combat climate change?
2. Potential Actions
Round 1
On your En-ROADS Control Panel, you should experiment with the 2-4 actions you believe are the most important to implement. Each action should involve adjusting one lever.
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1698497970010{margin-right: 10px !important;margin-left: 10px !important;}”]
Round 2
- Negotiate with the other teams, to come to joint solutions on climate change.
- Each team moves two sliders, and takes turns.
[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1698497776404{margin-top: 10px !important;}”]Conclusion
- Your Plan: What are the top 3-5 most important policies in your strategy? (For example, the most important sliders that you moved).
- Political Feasibility: To implement your proposals, what actions are needed over the next two years in businesses, civil society, government, and the public?
