Policy - ENV-Linkages

In most dynamic baseline or reference simulations, the growth rate of real per capita GDP will be exogenous and an economy-wide variable, for example a uniform labor productivity shifter, is endogenous and will serve as the instrument to target GDP growth. In policy or alternative simulations, the economy-wide factor would normally be exogenous and the growth rate of GDP would be endogenous.

Solution method	Optimization
Anticipation	The ENV-Linkages model is a recursive dynamic neo-classical general equilibrium model, meaning that decision-makers do not know the future when making a decision today. After it solves each period, the model then uses the resulting state of the world, including the consequences of decisions made in that period - such as resource depletion, capital stock retirements and installations, and changes to the landscape - and then moves to the next time step and performs the same exercise.
