Climate Action Simulation

A recent publication by Dr. Rooney-Varga of UMass Lowell shows that taking part in the Climate Action Simulation improves participants’ knowledge on the actions needed to address climate change, boosts both personal and emotional engagement with climate issues, and leaves participants feeling empowered to address climate change.

World Climate Simulation

This paper, co-authored by scientists at MIT, UMass Lowell, and Climate Interactive, details protocols for the World Climate Simulation – a simulation which provides an interactive role-play experience through which participants explore climate issues using a scientifically sound policy simulation model.

Equitable Transformation

This database focusing on Green, Resilient, and Equitable Actions for Transformation (GREAT) aims to collect as many examples as possible where city, state, and national leaders are making COVID-19 recovery plans in ways that could also produce benefits in racial, gender, and economic equity and in climate change mitigation and resilience.

The C-ROADS Model

The C-ROADS (Climate Rapid Overview And Decision Support) model is designed to build shared understanding of climate dynamics in a way that is solidly grounded in the best available science and rigorously non-partisan, yet understandable by and useful to non-specialists, from policymakers to the public.

C-ROADS

This paper describes C-ROADS (Climate Rapid Overview And Decision Support), a transparent, intuitive policy simulation model that provides policymakers, negotiators, educators, businesses, the media, and the public with the ability to explore, for themselves, the likely consequences of GHG emissions policies.
