Explore different visions of the future from the Calculator team, other models and other organisations.
The Global Calculator is a flexible tool that allows you to explore thousands of options to help you gain your own insights into the world's energy, land, food and climate systems. For example, you can look at how the world's energy supply could change from now to 2050, the role of people's lifestyles, and how these changes affect each other and the climate. You can also explore example pathways from many different organisations that show different possible trajectories for the word. The Global Calculator team hope that through using this single platform that can express a diverse range of opinions, the climate change debate will become more informed.

This report uses four example pathways to show that it is possible for the world to continue to develop and for us to limit climate change to 2°C. However, for economic development to continue to improve people's lives without dangerous climate change, we must transform the technologies and fuels we use, and make smarter use of our limited land resources.
