4CMR is an interdisciplinary research centre within the Department of Land Economy. Our objective is to foresee strategies, policies and processes that are effective in mitigating human-induced climate change.
We combine computer modelling with expert knowledge from economics, energy systems, engineering, applied mathematics and environmental science to understand how the transition to a low carbon economy can happen quickly, efficiently and equitably.
