The paper develops the concept of "Economic Pathways" (EPs), which char-
acterizes theory-based scenarios for an economy that strives for decarbonization
by the middle of the century. The theoretical framework derives closed-form an-
alytical solutions for consumption, innovation, emissions, and population. The
EPs di§er in the stringency of assumed policies and associated income and emis-
sion development. Unlike the well-known "Shared Socioeconomic Pathways",
they allow the inclusion of important causalities between the economy and the
environment and considerably narrow down the scope of likely future develop-
ments. The quantitative part serves to illustrate the long-term consequences of
climate policy. I show that deep decarbonization only moderately delays eco-
nomic development, but requires increasing escalation of the carbon price. The
paper argues that the adoption of more stringent climate policies becomes more
likely as the phase-out of fossil fuels increases. The "Green Road" is not only
feasible but also attractive and realistic.
