Your mandate: keep global warming within the Paris Agreement’s 1.5 - 2°C, protect nature, keep the economy strong, and make sure the transition is fair to everyone. No pressure.</p> <p>In this hands-on workshop, you’ll take the controls of En-ROADS: the world-renowned climate simulator built by MIT Sloan and Climate Interactive, used by governments, business leaders, and negotiators around the world. Pull the real levers of change: energy prices, renewables, transport, buildings, land use, population, economic growth, and watch the global temperature respond in real time.</p> <p>Working in small teams, you’ll debate trade-offs, test your instincts against hard system dynamics, and discover which solutions actually move the needle, and which popular ideas barely shift the dial. Expect some surprises. Almost everyone’s first plan misses the mark, and that’s exactly where the learning starts.</p> <p>Come ready to argue, experiment, and think like a planetary leader. You’ll leave with a genuine understanding of what it takes to solve climate change, and a sense of what’s truly possible.</p> <p>No science background needed — just curiosity and a willingness to make some big decisions.</p> <p>Agenda 1 The mission: You are now the CEO of Earth. You need to manage four goals: climate, nature, economy, and social justice.</p> <p>2 Meet the simulator Live demo of En-ROADS. See how it responds and establish the baseline: where we’re heading under current policy, what you can do, and how you can see what was impacted.</p> <p>3 Team huddle Groups of 3–5 form. Before touching the sim, each team debates and sketches a strategy on paper: what will they prioritise, and what will they trade off?</p> <p>4 Take the controls Teams access the simulation and build their plan, testing levers against the four goals.</p> <p>5 Report back Each team shares their headline result again one or more of the four goals e.g. final temperature, the economy, nature and social justice as well as one surprising thing they learned.</p> <p>6 Debrief What actually worked, common traps, and how this maps to real-world action. Closing: what are we taking away?</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="https://my.acaw.org.au/event/acaw-enroads-climate-action-simulator">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
