In climate change models, the A2 scenario represents a differentiated world. The A2 scenario is characterized by high population growth, high energy use, medium economic growth rates, lower trade between countries, and slower rates of technological change and innovation. The A2 world consolidates" into a series of economic regions. Economic growth is uneven-some countries grow fast and others not at all-and the income gap between now-industrialized and developing parts of the world grows through time. Environmentally-oriented political activism and civic engagement varies by country. In the context of climate change forecasts, the use of scenarios reflects: Ouncertainties about what causes climate change O uncertainties about the total forcings of each atmospheric component O uncertainties about future greenhouse gas emissions O uncertainties about fe edbacks in the climate system
