IPCC AR6 SYR SlideDeck
This document summarizes key findings from the Sixth Assessment Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. It finds that climate change impacts are intensifying with every increment of global warming and will profoundly affect people and nature. While options exist to mitigate climate change by cutting emissions nearly in half by 2030, current efforts are insufficient. Fairness is needed as those contributing least to the problem are often most vulnerable to its impacts. Integrating climate adaptation and resilience measures with development can provide wider benefits while enabling climate action through political commitment and international cooperation.
