According to Copernicus – a European Earth observation programme for monitoring our planet – January 2025 was the warmest on record globally

January 2025 was the warmest on record globally, despite an emerging La Niña climate.copernicus.eu

In the face of this news, your work on Project Earth is so valuable.

To understand the complexity of the climate crisis this simulator is particularly helpful En-ROADS climateinteractive.org

To quote from the Climate Interactive site

‘Developed by Climate Interactive, MIT Sloan, and Ventana Systems, En-ROADS is a system dynamics model carefully grounded in the best available science, and has been calibrated against a wide range of existing integrated assessment, climate, and energy models.’

The simulator was updated on 5th February 2025 to add more health impact visuals.

If you look at the tab ‘Graphs’ on the simulator you find a phenomenal amount of information and visualisations.

You can also sign up to be a climate ambassador https://www.climateinteractive.org/en-roads-ambassador-program/ and the course is free.  We did this with a large group of school students in the pandemic and they have gone on to give talks at conferences and be seen as experts in this.

You can watch a short film by Andrew Jones, the Executive Director and Co-Founder of Climate Interactive and a Research Affiliate at MIT Sloan, explaining the uses of the simulator and its potential.

It is a fantastic simulator to refer to when thinking about areas of work you wish to focus on for Project Earth.
