|a This report provides a snapshot of recent scientific literature and new analyses of likely impacts and risks that would be associated
with a 4° Celsius warming within this century. It is a rigorous attempt to outline a range of risks, focusing on developing
countries and especially the poor. A 4°C world would be one of unprecedented heat waves, severe drought, and major floods
in many regions, with serious impacts on ecosystems and associated services. But with action, a 4°C world can be avoided
and we can likely hold warming below 2°C. |
