Climate crisis data

 Hi everyone, Today I want to share with you some insights from the latest IPCC report on climate change from March 2023. The IPCC is the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a group of scientists and experts who assess the state of the climate and its impacts on humans and nature. The report is called AR6 Synthesis Report: Climate Change 2023 and it summarizes the findings of three previous reports by different working groups. The report is very comprehensive and detailed, but I will try to highlight some key points that I think are important for everyone to know. Here they are: - The report confirms that human activities are the main cause of the observed warming of the atmosphere, ocean and land since the pre-industrial period. The global average temperature has increased by 1.1°C since then, and by 0.2°C per decade over the past 40 years. - The report warns that we are already experiencing the consequences of climate change, such as more frequent and intense heat waves, d...

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the leading international body for assessing the scientific basis of climate change, its impacts and potential future risks, and possible response options. The IPCC produces comprehensive Assessment Reports every six to seven years, as well as Special Reports on specific topics. The Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) is the latest and most comprehensive assessment of the state of knowledge on climate change. The AR6 consists of three Working Group reports and a Synthesis Report (SYR), which integrates the findings of the Working Group reports and the Special Reports. The SYR is written in a non-technical style suitable for policymakers and addresses a broad range of policy-relevant but policy-neutral questions. The Summary for Policymakers (SPM) of the SYR provides a concise overview of the key messages and findings of the SYR. One of the most important figures in the SPM is Figure SPM.1, which shows how human activities have affected ...

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the leading international body for assessing the scientific basis of climate change, its impacts and potential future risks, and possible response options. The IPCC produces comprehensive assessment reports every six to seven years that synthesize the latest knowledge on climate change from thousands of peer-reviewed publications. The IPCC's Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) consists of four parts: three Working Group reports and a Synthesis Report. The Working Group reports cover the physical science basis of climate change (WG I), the impacts, adaptation and vulnerability to climate change (WG II), and the mitigation of climate change (WG III). The Synthesis Report integrates the findings of the Working Group reports and provides policymakers with a concise and accessible summary of the current state of knowledge and action options on climate change. The AR6 Synthesis Report was finalized in March 2023, following the approval of...

 What is the IPCC AR6 Synthesis Report and why does it matter? The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the leading international body for assessing the scientific basis of climate change, its impacts and potential future risks, and possible response options. The IPCC produces comprehensive assessment reports every six to seven years that summarize the current state of knowledge on climate change and its implications for society and the environment. The Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) is the latest and most comprehensive report by the IPCC, which consists of three Working Group contributions and a Synthesis Report. The Working Group I report, released in August 2021, focused on the physical science basis of climate change. The Working Group II report, released in February 2022, assessed the impacts, adaptation and vulnerability of human and natural systems to climate change. The Working Group III report, released in April 2022, examined the mitigation of climate change...

Dr. Peter Carter presents the major findings of the IPCC’s 6th Assessment report and discusses them with Regina Valdez. Peter succinctly summarizes it as follows: “The report finds unless there are immediate, rapid and large-scale reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, limiting warming to close to 1.5°C or even 2°C will be beyond reach.” This video was recorded on Aug 13th, 2021, and published on August 24th, 2021. Topics discussed include the following: - A presentation of the Working Group I report, which is the first instalment of the IPCC’s Sixth Assessment Report (AR6). - Peter mentions some of the websites he uses to help him keep track of Government action on Climate which include ‘Climate Action Tracker’ and ‘Energy Policy Tracker.’ - Despite the clarity of the information in the reports, governments are failing to take proportional action and are actually doing the opposite of what’s needed by providing billions of dollars in subsidies to Fossil Fuel Corporations. - How fossi...

Prof Malte Meinshausen and Zebedee Nicholls, 24 August 2021. The Physical Science (Working Group 1) contribution to the IPCC’s Sixth Assessment Report was released on the 10th August 2021. This second of two seminars takes a closer look at two key areas in the report: future warming and remaining carbon budgets, presented by two authors that have been closely involved in this IPCC cycle. It builds on the broader overview provided by the first seminar. The seminar will present an assessment of future warming under a selection of different scenarios. We will discuss the assessments, their uncertainty and the methods used, including key methodological advancements compared to previous IPCC reports. To enhance the connection with other discussions on net zero, we will also place the scenarios considered in the context of other mitigation pathways from the scenario literature. We will also discuss new estimates of our remaining carbon budget i.e. the total amount of carbon dioxide we...

The IPCC has been publishing science based climate warning assessments since 1990 and in those 30 odd years human beings have released more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than we did in the previous two centuries. That has to go down as a fail. This latest report contains the starkest and bluntest language so far. So will this one make any difference? Upon analyzing the data we leave behind, the aliens will be amazed at the detailed manner in which we documented our demise. Judging from our collective response to the COVID Pandemic, I don’t expect an adequate response from our political leadership. Self interest is the biggest hurdle to implementing already proven solutions. I think the most important point is, that any step towards sustainability, even the smallest will be beneficial long term. Just because you don't achieve the goals set doesn't mean giving up is the same. If you are driving a car against the wall it is still useful to try and brake and reduce the impact ...

The latest report from the IPCC makes for grim reading, but I think hidden in the pages there are also some pieces of good news. I talk about both in this video.

In this video I talk about the latest report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change or IPCC, the IPCC WG1 AR6. I interview a professor of climate change at the University of Exeter, Mat Collins, and talk through some of the findings of the IPCC report. These include the impact of ENSO on crop yields, drought, heatwaves, extreme weather, and other factors. Basically stop putting carbon into the atmosphere, it's that simple guys.

The latest IPCC report warns of devastating consequences from past and present emissions, stating that the 1.5 deg C threshold for rise in temperature will be breached by the year 2040. However, the report also says that things will become a lot worse before they get better. ThePrint’s Sandhya Ramesh explains what the report outlines and what it asks countries to do.

Prof Malte Meinshausen and Zebedee Nicholls, 10 August 2021. The Physical Science (Working Group 1) contribution to the IPCC’s Sixth Assessment Report was released on the 10th August 2021. This first of two seminars will provide an overview of some key results in the IPCC report, presented by two authors that have been closely involved in this IPCC cycle. The seminar will cover the new scenarios that underpin future projections, historical warming updates, the question around how these scenarios compare to 1.5C warming, a comparison of when peak warming levels could be reached under the low mitigation scenarios, the impact of COVID, techniques to provide assessed future temperature projections based on multiple lines of evidence, the usefulness of providing projections against warming levels, remaining carbon budgets in comparison to the SR.5 report, as well as the importance of CO2 versus other gases, both in terms of past and future warming as well as in terms of so-called metrics t...

The IPCC's latest report about the physical science of climate change comes out today. And it's not bedtime reading. It contains the strongest evidence yet of the damage we are doing to the planet and the dramatic shifts we are causing in our climate system. It shows even more starkly what could happen if we continue to emit greenhouse gases into the atmosphere - including irreversible changes that would reshape our world completely. And it reinforces the same message that climate scientists have been giving for decades: every tonne of CO2 matters.

The Physical Science Basis, which is the Sixth Assessment Report of the IPCC. Hundreds of climate scientists were tasked with providing a physical science basis for policymakers to understand the past, present, and future of global warming. In this video, we examine some of the major findings in the report, what it means for our future, and what is left to be done to combat the climate crisis. Featuring excerpts from an interview with Dr. Michael Mann in January 2021.

The UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report has just been published - and it's been described as "code red" for humanity. What does it say, what does it mean, how bad a mess are we in - and is there any hope? Climate expert Ketan Joshi joins us to break it all down - and explain what comes next. We are 8.4yrs away from 2030, economies and countries are built on growth, greed, and full throttle acceleration. Making drastic changes seems impossible to get through to the society’s.

According to a U.N. report, climate change is now “rapid, widespread and intensifying” and many of the human-caused effects are now “irreversible.” NBC News’ Josh Lederman breaks down the report’s findings the stark warnings from climate experts. 

The United Nations' intergovernmental panel on climate change panel has projected the global temperatures to shoot up over the next 20 years. The report has delivered the starkest warning yet about the deepening climate emergency. When 'code red' said in a movie: Everybody gets active running here and there to do their part. When said same in the real life: It means nothing. As usual the life goes on.

A UN’s climate panel delivered their starkest warning yet about the deepening climate emergency, with some of the changes already set in motion thought to be “irreversible” for centuries to come.

The first major IPCC report for seven years sheds light on the past, present and future of climate change. But what do we now know about global warming, and how will it reshape the path we choose over the next decades and centuries? I break down my key take aways from the IPCC AR6 WG1 (6th assessment report, working group 1). Everyone that the journalists have been interviewing says the report ends with optimism by saying we can still take action, that it is up to us to shape the future but they all side stepped around the fact that much of the damage is stated as already irreversible and the actions we can take would only avert even worse outcomes. That positive note is that it can and will be far worse than we've already seen if we don't take actions.Is really "it can and will be worse" really a positive note? and how sad is it that such a perspective is now considered optimistic. Sure although the best time to do something is yesterday, the second best is today but...

Dr. Ed Hawkins, one of the lead authors of the report, joins the show to explain some of the report's biggest findings, what it means for our climate future, and what we should learn to act now to avoid the worst consequences yet to come. Dr. Hawkins is a professor of climate science at the University of Reading and internationally known for the creation of the climate stripes, which are the visualization of warming over time.

The warnings could hardly be more stark. Changes to the world's climate are inevitable and irreversible, and without immediate, radical action to reduce greenhouse gases the future is catastrophic. The UN's panel of climate change experts say global warming has been unequivocally caused by human activity, while the extent of the crisis means nobody is safe. Drought, rising sea levels, intense flooding and fires are already evident across the planet. When the last tree has been cut down, the last fish caught, the last river poisoned, only then will we realise that one cannot eat money.

The world's leading climate scientists have issued a stark new warning about the growing impact of climate change and what needs to be done to stop it. CBS News foreign correspondent Roxana Saberi reports on the key findings, and Bloomberg Sustainability Editor Eric Roston joins CBSN to discuss.

The tipping points for climate crisis Carbon pollution has risen to such extremes that a key threshold in the fight to stop climate change — limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) by the end of the century — will be crossed within the next 15 years. That is one of the key findings from a landmark report approved by delegates from 195 countries and published Monday by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The analysis, which comes amid record-breaking heat and rains that have rocked rich and poor countries alike, draws on more than 14,000 peer-reviewed studies to assess the physical science of climate change. It paints a sober picture of a planet warped beyond recognition by members of a single species in the space of just a few hundred years. "This report is a reality check," said Valérie Masson-Delmotte, co-chair of the IPCC working group that prepared it. In 2015, world leaders pledged to limit warming by the end of the centu...

With only 9 years left to halve global emissions, this episode explores why we should reframe climate change as a climate crisis.  We take a look back at all the COPs of the past, the crucial turning points of the Paris climate agreement, and the 2018 IPCC report in order to understand why COP 26 this year in Glasgow is so important in our attempts to limit temperature rise.

It's totally free to create an account so why not check it out: waterbear.com Some comments about this video: 9 years seems too optimistic. I've read several articles that stated the CO2 budget for the 1.5° goal will have been fully spent by 2027. Realistically, if we look at how little progress we've made all these decades, it seem extremely unlikely that we will be able to curb our CO2 emissions fast enough t...

A leaked draft report from the United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change paints the starkest picture yet of the accelerating danger caused by human use of coal, oil, and gas. It warns of coming unlivable heat waves, widespread hunger and drought, rising sea levels and extinction. To understand the report's warnings, William Brangham turns to atmospheric scientist Katharine Hayoe.

Dangers and solutions to our current climate crisis Engineers and scientists are trying to intervene in the Earth’s geochemical cycles. Because it appears efforts to cut CO2 won’t suffice to avoid irreversible climate change. Some scientists believe that we need to explore radical, and perhaps dangerous, technologies in order to be able to lower the earth’s temperature through geoengineering in the near future.  Science journalist Ingolf Baur explores the feasibility and risks of leading geoengineering projects. His journey takes him to meet scientists in Switzerland, Iceland, the US and Peru. Along the way, he encounters two very different strategies: One is to fish climate-damaging CO2 from the atmosphere and sink it underground or in the deep sea. The other, and this is the far more controversial strategy, seeks to develop techniques that dim sunlight. Global warming is causing entire mountain ridges like the Moosfluh above Switzerland’s Aletsch Glacier to break off. Such dramat...
