Solution home En-ROADS Economic impact of climate change (damage function)

Why does the economic damage from climate change cause the temperature to be lower in En-ROADS? Print

Created by: Janet Chikofsky

Modified on: Wed, Dec 20, 2023 at 2:02 PM


As of June 2023, En-ROADS includes the economic impact of climate change in the Baseline Scenario. This means the larger the temperature increases, the lower the economic growth there is.

 

Economic growth drives energy demand, and therefore emissions of greenhouse gases. For example, a scenario with lower economic growth will decrease energy demand and CO2 emissions from energy.
