|a This Summary for Policymakers presents key findings from the Special Report on Managing the
Risks of Extreme Events and Disasters to Advance Climate Change Adaptation (SREX). The
SREX approaches the topic by assessing the scientific literature on issues that range from the
relationship between climate change and extreme weather and climate events (“climate
extremes”) to the implications of these events for society and sustainable development. The
assessment concerns the interaction of climatic, environmental, and human factors that can lead
to impacts and disasters, options for managing the risks posed by impacts and disasters, and the
important role that non-climatic factors play in determining impacts. Box SPM.1 defines
concepts central to the SREX |
