Climate Change and What Could Shape Our Future
At COP30 in Belem, Brazil, governments reaffirmed global climate goals under the Paris Agreement but fell short of commitments capable of changing current emissions trajectories. This matters in a world that has already warmed to approximately 1.4°C above pre-industrial levels, with climate impacts intensifying unevenly across localities and regions, shaped by place-specific social, economic, and political contexts.
The seminar uses the En-ROADS Climate Solutions Simulator to explore different mitigation policy options, showing how emissions respond in practice and opening discussion on what this means for climate policy and the choices we make in a warming world.
