Simulating the Future: Climate Risk & Opportunity with En-ROADS

An interactive MIT Sloan session stress-testing climate policy pathways with the En-ROADS simulator.

Why this room

A highly interactive working session using En-ROADS — the free, fast, system-dynamics simulator co-developed by Climate Interactive and MIT Sloan. Participants build future scenarios live, test combinations of policy and technology levers, and leave with a shared read on transition risk, physical risk, and where the opportunities concentrate. Convened at the MIT Sloan Tang Center (Building E51, Room 085).

What it intends to carry

Pressure-test plausible climate policy pathways and see which interventions actually move the dial on warming, risk, and opportunity.
