IPCC Special Report on Climate Change and Land

As more frequent droughts and floods threaten the global food supply, humans are increasing their demands on water and land,...
Cities can help nations achieve their Paris Agreement commitment by supporting the implementation of transformational actions to increase the supply of renewable energy, improve building energy efficiency, increase access to affordable, low carbon transport options, and change consumption patterns. ...

The report is the first comprehensive analysis of climate ri...
