- Carbon tax (A tax on carbon leads to higher prices for carbon intensive fuels (such as fossil fuels), making low-carbon alternatives more attractive., Component: Climate policy, Energy conversion, Energy demand)
- Climate change adaptation (Adaptation to climate change reduces climate damage. The model can optimally calculate the optimal adaptation level based on marginal adaptation costs and marginal avoided damage, but an alternative adaptation level can be used as well., Component: Climate policy)
- Effort- or burden-sharing of emission reductions (Evaluation of burden-sharing or effort-sharing regimes. Which regions or countries should contribute, when and by how much to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions?, Component: Climate policy)
- Emission trading policy (Analysis of the effect of rules for trading emission credits on regional abatement costs., Component: Climate policy)
- Expanding Reduced Impact Logging (Increasing the share of produced wood yielded with Reduced Impact Logging (RIL) practices instead of conventional logging practices., Component: Forest management)
- Financing climate policy (Developed countries could provide financial resources to assist developing countries by implementation of mitigation and adaptation policies. To mobilise these funds, several mechanisms exist, of which the effect can be analysed, Component: Climate policy)
- Improved irrigation efficiency (Improved irrigation efficiency assumes an increase in the irrigation project efficiency and irrigation conveyance efficiency., Component: Water)
- Improved rainwater management (Improved rainwater management assumes a decrease in the evaporative losses from rainfed agriculture and the creation of small scale reservoirs to harvest rainwater during the wet period and use it during a dryer period. Both measures lead to more efficient use of water and increased yields on rainfed fields., Component: Water)
- Increase forest plantations (Increase the use of wood from highly productive wood plantations instead of wood from (semi-) natural forests., Component: Forest management)
- Increased storage capacity (Increasing storage capacity assumes that the total water volume stored in large reservoirs will increase. This can either be established by an increase of the capacity of existing reservoirs, or by building new reservoirs., Component: Water)
- More sustainable forest management (Sustainable forest management aims for maintaining long-term harvest potential and good ecological status of forests (e.g. the nutrient balance and biodiversity). This can be implemented by (i) enlarging the return period when a forest can be harvested again; (ii) only using certain fractions of the harvested biomass and leave the remaining part in the forests., Component: Forest management)
- Reduction proposals (pledges) (Evaluation of current reduction proposals by countries and policy options (for the next 10-20 years)., Component: Climate policy)
