Agent‐based modeling to integrate elements from different disciplines for ambitious climate policy

Ambitious climate mitigation policies face social and political resistance.

We argue agent-based models can serve as a powerful tool for integration elements different disciplines. Having such common platform will enable more complete assessment policies, in terms criteria like effectiveness, equity public support.
