Research reported during the past decade has shown that global warming is roughly proportional to the total amount of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere. This makes …
This chapter assesses simulations of future global climate change, spanning time horizons from the near term (2021–2040), mid-term (2041–2060), and long term (2081–2100) out to …
It is unequivocal that the increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) since the pre-industrial period are caused by human activities. The …
Current policies and actions make it very likely, at least temporarily, to overshoot the Paris climate targets of 1.5–< 2.0° C above pre-industrial levels. If this global warming range is …
Working Group I (WGI) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assesses the current evidence on the physical science of climate change, evaluating knowledge …
This Report responds to the invitation for IPCC?... to provide a Special Report in 2018 on the impacts of global warming of 1.5° C above pre-industrial levels and related global …
Abstract The Paris Agreement has opened debate on whether limiting warming to 1.5° C is compatible with current emission pledges and warming of about 0.9° C from the mid …
Nature-based climate solutions can contribute to climate mitigation, but the vulnerability of land carbon to disturbances means that efforts to slow or reverse land carbon loss could …
Several major economies rely heavily on fossil fuel production and exports, yet current low- carbon technology diffusion, energy efficiency and climate policy may be substantially …
