MIT Climate Pathways Project

The Simulators

The best available science, in a fraction of a second.

Co-developed between Climate Interactive and the MIT Sloan School of Management, these two global climate solution simulators use the best available science. Both are free, fast, easy-to-use, and available in multiple languages. They are tested against and calibrated to historic data and other models, and their structure, equations and assumptions are all published for you to explore. You can even challenge and change the key assumptions. Both simulators are updated regularly with the latest science and new features.

The Simulators:

En-ROADS

En-ROADS is the newest and most popular global simulator that allows users to explore the impact of dozens of policies—such as electrifying transport, pricing carbon, and improving agricultural practices—on hundreds of factors, like energy prices, temperature, air quality, and sea level rise.

C-ROADS

C-ROADS allows users to explore the impacts of emissions pathways, deforestation, and afforestation pledges across regional group to determine whether, collectively, they are enough to meet global climate goals.
