@Fuhji - The descriptions of the scenarios for the more detail modal will shortly be available at https://api.micronutrient.support/projection-scenario (once deployment finishes)
The short descriptions for the brief summary card aren't yet in the db but will be added to the DB/API endpoint asap
API response updated to include the brief description text and which scenario is the 'baseline' scenario'
Endpoint: https://api.micronutrient.support/projection-scenario OpenAPI doc: https://api.micronutrient.support/explorer
User story
As a policy-maker, I want to understand how the projections are modelled, so I can can make informed decisions
Summary
Provide a quick overview and a more detailed overview of different scenarios used in 'Projections to 2050' page.

Short scenarios description
The projections are modelled based on 3 different scenarios. Scenario SSP1 is called the Sustainability scenario; scenario SSP2 is the Middle of the Road scenario; scenario SSP3 is the Regional Rivalry Scenario.
Detailed scenarios description
SSP1 - Sustainable development is realized, with relatively high levels of investment in research and development, which leads to rapid technological change (with a sustainable focus), decreasing inequality, lower energy intensity, and high land productivity. This development pathway leads to a future where society is able to relatively easily mitigate or adapt to climate change. There are a high rate of economic growth, declining population growth, and increasing levels of education globally. SSP2 - This is a middle-of-the-road scenario that follows historical trends. Economic development continues but is not uniform. Environmental degradation continues but at a slowing pace. There is general improvement, but it is much slower than that seen in SSP 1. Climate change presents moderate challenges to both adaptation and mitigation. SSP3 - This is a fairly negative future pathway characterized by increasing nationalism with greater levels of conflict and challenges to global and regional cooperation. Barriers to trade increase, and countries tend to look inward at the expense of global cooperation. There are lower levels of technological change. Economic development is slow, and population growth is higher. Climate change presents significant challenges for both adaptation and mitigation.
