Summary
The international group of climate scientists studying the impacts of and solutions to
global warming released their latest synthesis report, adding to a long series of
scientific reports published by the group since the first was released in 1990.
Their conclusions underscore that the effects of climate change will continue to worsen,
with reduced water availability and food production, increased risk of pandemics,
malnutrition, displacement and associated mental health impacts, declining biodiversity
and ecosystem functioning in terrestrial, freshwater and marine systems, and a growing
likelihood of wildfires, flooding, extreme weather and expensive damage to infrastructure
and buildings.
