C-GEM (Coupled Climate and Economic Model)
C-GEM (Coupled Climate and Economic Model) is a tool that connects climate science with economic analysis to evaluate how climate change affects economies and how economic decisions influence the climate. It integrates data on weather, temperature, and environmental impacts with financial models to predict future scenarios. This helps policymakers understand the trade-offs between investing in climate mitigation or adaptation and the economic costs or benefits. Essentially, C-GEM provides a comprehensive view of how climate and economics interact over time, supporting more informed decisions to manage climate-related risks while considering economic outcomes.
