"ENVISAGE"
by van der Mensbrugghe, Dominique


Abstract
This document’s main purpose is to provide a full description of the
Envisage Model. Envisage is a global recursive dynamic computable general
equilibrium model developed originally at the World Bank. Envisage has been
developed to assess the interactions between economies and the global environment
as affected by human-based emissions of greenhouse gases. At its core, Envisage
is a relatively standard recursive dynamic multi-sector multi-region CGE model. It
is complemented with an emissions and climate module that links directly economic
activities to changes in global mean temperature. And it incorporates a feedback
loop that links changes in temperature to impacts on economic variables such as
agricultural yields or damages created by sea level rise [tbd]. One of the overall
objectives of the development of Envisage has been to provide a greater focus on
the economics of climate change for a more detailed set of developing countries as
well as greater attention to the potential economic damages. The model remains a
work in progress as there are several key features of the economics of climate change
that are planned to be incorporated.
