On October 8, 2018, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released the Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5°C exploring the climate-related risks for natural and human systems for global warming at 1.5°C above preindustrial levels. It finds based on extensive modeling of different emissions pathway scenarios that future risks can be reduced by the upscaling and acceleration of far-reaching, multi-level, and cross-sectoral climate mitigation and by both incremental and transformational adaptation. The report summarizes a range of behavioral changes and technology advancements that will be needed across all emitting sectors.
