Not an IMPRESS activity this time. Last week, the IPCC released the draft text of their latest report, entitled “Global Warming of 1.5 °C: an IPCC special report on the impacts of global warming of 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels and related global greenhouse gas emission pathways, in the context of strengthening the global response to the threat of climate change, sustainable development, and efforts to eradicate poverty”.
This will be an important document, likely laying the foundation for global efforts to tackle climate change over the next few years, and as such will be important background reading for anyone involved in research with effects on climate change mitigation technologies.
