Simulating climate solutions

​As the climate crisis intensifies, so does the urgency to implement climate solutions we already have.

​In this Reimagine Resilience session, Pradeep Angiras will introduce En-Roads, a world-renowned simulator which synthesizes the best available science and research about how our energy consumption, technology, and land use choices can shape our climate. In this demo, climate impacts will be localized to Nova Scotia. We will propose solutions and see them tested in real time.

​Developed by Climate Interactive and MIT Sloan, En-ROADS is being used by policymakers, businesses, educators, the media, and the public to support climate conversations, policy and advocacy.
