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.
