MIT En-ROADS Simulator Climate Workshop
Event description
EnergyZE North Shore Inc is pleased to host a MIT En-ROADS Climate Workshop at Gordon Library on Tuesday, 12 November at 6:15 pm. Entry is from 5:50 pm and refreshments will be provided.
What is the workshop?
Co-developed by Climate Interactive and the MIT Sustainability Initiative, this Climate workshop is an interactive experience which helps build support for strategies to address climate change by testing the En-ROADS Climate Simulator. The resulting experience is hopeful, scientifically grounded, action-oriented, and eye-opening. The workshop has been held for thousands of climate leaders including members of the U.S. Congress, HSBC Bank, the UN Secretary-General’s Office, among others.
How does it work?
This workshop is an interactive group exercise guided by a trained facilitator, where people work together to test solutions for addressing climate change. Participants propose climate solutions such as energy efficiency, carbon pricing, fossil fuel taxes, deforestation reduction, and carbon dioxide removal. The facilitator tests these approaches in the Climate Solutions Simulator so participants can see the impact on global temperature and other factors in real time. The workshop’s goal is to create a scenario that limits global warming to well below 2°C and aims for 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, the international goals formally recognised in the Paris climate agreement.
