  1. 4. ____ risk scenario analysis can make use of integrated assessment models (IAMs),economic models that also include representations of societal and environmental phenomena
  2. 5. All scenarios that result in the stabilisation of global temperatures, at 5 degree and over next 60 years, end up at net zero (TRUE/NOPE)
  3. 7. Radiative forcing measures the change in energy balance in the Earth's atmosphere due to greenhouse gases. (TRUE/NOPE)
  4. 9. IEA's _____ (acronym) scenario, which combines climate and social targets and limits warming to 2°C in line with Paris targets
  5. 11. All scenario assume ___ removal to achieve "net" in net-zero.
  6. 12. Net zero means reducing global emissions (“sources”) to zero in highly emissive sectors of the global economy and balancing out any residual emissions (TRUE/NOPE)
  7. 13. As per NGFS's Disorderly Transition Scenario,Emissions reductions are sharper, leading to _______ (hint:blank indicates comparability) transition risk.
  8. 14. In the SSP-RCP Matrix, the rows denote a ___ that represents corresponding level climate policy stringency.
  9. 15. ____ sector does not yet have viable zero carbon alternatives.
  10. 18. Tushar Johri has created this crossword (This is a dummy clue. Fill in with "Dummy")
  11. 20. For sectors without clear decarbonization pathways as yet, such as steel and cement, the PACTA methodology instead uses the measure of ____ (plural) intensity
  12. 22. For _____ risk, emissions trajectories only make a difference on very long timescales

  1. 1. Net zero scenarios by IEA has number of milestones. One of the milestone states that by 2030, the world needs to achieve ____ % of vehicle sales remaining non-electric.
  2. 2. Due to the ____ in the global climate system, the physical outcomes of climate change are practically the same for the next few decades
  3. 3. The SSP base scenarios deliberately do not include climate ____ (plural form) as SSPs can be combined with different RCPs.
  4. 5. RCP 2.6 and RCP 1.9 are not possible to achieved under SSP ____ (in words)
  5. 6. Short-term scenario planning is more about preparedness than _____ between trajectories
  6. 8. RCP2.6 is a plausible emissions pathway under both SSP1,SSP2 and SSP3, but the underlying socioeconomic drivers and outcomes are different (TRUE/NOPE)
  7. 10. TCFD recommends _____ analysis as a way to “enhance critical strategic thinking”
  8. 12. Reference scenarios are a set of precise estimation of global emissions trajectories, with accompanying socio-economic narratives and estimates for physical impacts (as calculated by climate models) (TRUE/NOPE)
  9. 16. Combinations of scenarios are often used in tandem to help cover gaps in coverage for a par-ticular time frame, sector, or regional geography of interest (TRUE/NOPE)
  10. 17. physical models are designed, these models give the best accuracy on _____ (hint: length in time) timescales
  11. 19. _____ risk scenario analysis is very closely and directly tied to emissions scenarios
  12. 21. ______ is calibrated to optimize outcomes as measured by minimizing the aggregate economic costs involved.
