“Nature can be our savior. But only if we save it first.”

A consortium of 270 scientists from 67 countries synthesized the report after reviewing over 34,000 studies. Released February 28 as part of the IPCC’s sixth assessment of climate science, the report details how the impacts of climate change are playing out today in different regions, and assessed the capacities of communities and regions to adapt.

Many countries understand the need for climate adaptation. And modern solutions, such as the building of urban gardens or adoption of agroforestry, where implemented, appear to show promise. But, the report finds, efforts to adapt are, by and large, reactionary, small and drastically underfunded. As a result, about 3.3 billion to 3.6 billion people remain highly vulnerable to climate risks such as extreme weather events, sea level rise and food and water shortages.

The report also underscores the importance of involving those who are impacted the most in climate plans. “We can no longer just make these decisions at the highest level; we need to include local stakeholders, Indigenous groups, local communities and those who are most as at risk for climate change, such as women, racial minorities, the elderly and children,” Christianson says.. In that report, scientists stated loud and clear that there was no time to waste.

Still, climate change is already affecting many parts of Earth. And some of the consequences aren’t going away anytime soon. Sea level will continue to rise for decades, driven in part by

I don't know why scientists don't compare additional heat from solar because of man causing ozone density reduction and heat caused by carbon dioxide on the surface. The sun is our furnace!

Let's all follow Germany's lead. Right off a cliff.

Only just because they are doing everything possible to make sure that the climate is changing like that cloud ☁️ seeding that they are already doing for years and allowing companies to put any chemicals or anything else that is not good for us to be able to stay healthy for life

Tell Putin and China about that. Like they would care.

Війна триває, гинуть люди!!!! Закрийте небо над Україною!!!! Ми разом переможимо зло!!!!!

How will the universe end?

All creatures including Trees,animals,birds,humans etc. living altogether ,if one separated naturally badly affect all others.

it Would be great if they cited the underground aquifer systems as well that need to be cleaned as well as the caverns they seep to. Water testing alone will not solve this problem, but I guess the world is more full of pharma techs and chemical engineers than geographic Ones.

This is what's wrong with the world I follow different Twitter sites and for the science news they have a few lights and the reports about Kanye West having thousands is a waste in my opinion I wish more people followed sites like science news and engaged

A Major UN Climate Change Report Was Just Approved by Nearly 200 NationsNearly 200 nations approved a major UN climate change report detailing the accelerating impacts of global warming on Sunday, at the end of a sometimes fraught two-week meeting overshadowed by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Stop with the fearmongering propaganda. There's no global warming. Atmospheric CO2 levels do not cause temps to rise -- CO2 rises as higher temps release CO2 from the oceans. CO2 is essential for life on Earth and makes it greener. There's no greenhouse effect. No greenhouse.
