Age: After a rocky, sometimes controversial six years, climate experts have settled on their message to the world's governments: climate change can and must be stopped but the window of opportunity is closing fast. In Copenhagen on Sunday, the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) produced its final report before next year's summit in Paris where a new global agreement on climate is due to be hammered out. The IPCC's fifth "synthesis report" pulls together the latest climate...

UN climate change report: time running out to prevent 'dangerous, irreversible' impacts

Telegraph: Time is running out to prevent "irreversible and dangerous impacts" of climate change, a major UN report has warned. The world is on course to experience "severe and pervasive' effects of global warming unless it urgently cuts its greenhouse gas emissions. Global emissions must fall by at least 40 per cent by 2050 and be cut to zero by the end of the century, the report from the UN's Intergovernment Panel on Climate Change warns. The longer government delay action on climate change, the more expensive...

Scientific American: Climate change is real. Carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels and clearing forests, among other human activities, is to blame. And more and more of that global warming pollution is being dumped in the atmosphere each year. So says the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's new synthesis report released on November 2. The synthesis reduces thousands of pages of scientific knowledge to their essence. That essence, however, has hardly changed since the last synthesis report...

The report, to be issued Sunday, arrives as international negotiators prepare to meet in Lima, Peru, in December to establish parameters for an eventual agreement on...

IPCC reaches finish line releases major climate change synthesis report

Science: Climate change is taking hold and will bring worrying impacts but there is still time to limit the damage. That, in a nutshell, is the message delivered by a new report that synthesizes the findings of three massive studies issued by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) over the past year. The Synthesis Report, released today at a meeting in Copenhagen, caps work on the fifth assessment of climate science and mitigation that the IPCC has completed since 1990. The report demonstrates...
