This chapter from the IPCC Special Report on 1.5°C focuses on sustainable development, poverty eradication, and reducing inequalities in the context of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. It finds that 1.5°C of warming poses fewer risks to achieving sustainable development goals than 2°C but still threatens human and ecosystem well-being. Mitigation and adaptation consistent with 1.5°C can create synergies with sustainable development through low energy pathways and place-specific solutions, but also trade-offs like risks for fossil fuel dependent economies. Achieving sustainable development while limiting warming will require coordinated global cooperation, attention to equity, and fundamental societal changes.
