Rising temps increase heat-related illness, especially in urban areas. Use #EnROADS (co-dev’d w/ Climate Interactive) to explore how global policies can reduce the number of add’l deaths from extreme heat | The New York Times story by Raymond Zhong | #ClimatePathwaysProject

1/2 Can’t forget that nuclear competes with ALL energy sources-not just fossil! Encouraging nuclear means less wind & solar too. That’s one reason that encouraging it globally in #EnROADS only shaves off 0.2°F (0.1°C) of temp rise | #ClimatePathwaysProject en-roads.climateinteractive.org/scenario.html?…

As the #Maldives adapt to sea level rise, flood risk mapping in #EnROADS (co-dev’d w/ Climate Interactive) reminds us that global action taken now can STILL save land in island nations | Government of Maldives | #ClimatePathwaysProject | National Geographic story by Tristan McConnell

Thrilled that MIT Sloan Sustainability Initiative's #ClimatePathwaysProject & Climate Interactive's #EnROADS simulator are contributing to the City of Burlington's efforts to achieve their net zero energy goals! Looking forward to it, BTVMayor Miro Weinberger!

Our #EnROADS simulator (co-dev’d w/ @ClimateInteract) helps us see the relationship b/t gas production and methane emissions. Look what happens to methane (CH4) when we discourage gas, worldwide | The Washington Post story by Tik Root | #ClimatePathwaysProject

Gov. John Bel Edwards 1/3 Congrats to Gov. John Bel Edwards on LA’s Climate Action Plan! #EnROADS (co-dev’d w/ Climate Interactive) can simulate a global 100% Clean Electricity x 2035 goal like LA’s & show the impact of qualifying different energy sources as clean | #ClimatePathwaysProject

As U.S. preps to give CA authority to set vehicle emissions standards tougher than fed gov’t’s #EnROADS show us the large impact Emissions Performance Standards could have on a global scale | The Washington Post story by Dino Grandoni | #ClimatePathwaysProject

Thanks MIT Sloan Action Learning for the feature! Had a great time as a keynote speaker discussing how we work with companies in our S-Lab course to solve sustainability challenges they face, while empowering our students to make a tangible impact.

As new IPCC study shows climate change impacts to be larger than previously thought, use #EnROADS to test solutions bolder than you previously thought possible! There IS still time to limit warming to 2.7°F/3.6°F (1.5°C/2°C) | #ClimatePathwaysProject

More than any other generation, Gen Z is focussed on making an impact for the collective good. (We need only look at the news to see why). The sooner companies & orgs accept that EVERY job needs to be a sustainability job, the better off we'll all be. bbc.com/worklife/artic…

As the # of global crises grows each year, Gen Z is approaching the future, and their place in it, in a way no generation has had to before. As MIT Sloan School of Management's Bethany Patten sums up below, "every job needs to be a sustainability job at some level." bbc.com/worklife/artic…

MIT Sloan’s Catherine Wolfram has become a leading energy economist through original studies that can inform our global climate response. “We’ve made a lot of progress,” she says. “But we still have a lot more to do.” mitsha.re/wfif50UcH5x
