  • First IPCC Report

    This report proved that climate change was a reality.

  • Second IPCC Report

    This report showed the effects humans had on the climate.

  • Third IPCC Report

    This report suggested that the global mean temperature will increase by 5.8ºC by 2050 due to anthropogenic emissions.

  • Fourth IPCC Report

    This report gave evidence of the serious global warming effects. It suggested that it would be better to reduce emissions as that would save us from the damage caused later.

  • Fifth IPCC Report

    This report shows how burning fossil fuels and the increasing carbon dioxide levels in our atmosphere are causing global warming. It was the strongest warning until then.

  • Latest IPCC Report

    This report focused on climate change, desertification, land degradation, sustainable land management, food security, and greenhouse gas fluxes in the ecosystem.

  • Sixth IPCC Report

    Since the report hasn't been published yet, only some information is available at the moment. It says that by bringing lifestyle changes, humans need to cut down on GHG emissions by 50% by 2030 in order to limit warming to 1.5 °C.

  • Prediction

    There should be a complete cut down in GHG emissions. Temperatures may rise by 5.8ºC.
