Carbon Brief’s guide to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s fifth assessment report

Carbon Brief Staff

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has just completed a major review of global climate research – its fifth assessment report (AR5).

The report is split into three sections. The first two instalments cover the science and impacts of climate change. The third part looks at policies to cut global greenhouse gas emissions. The IPCC also produces a synthesis report, drawing all the research together.

We’ve covered each instalment in detail. Here’s a catalogue of Carbon Brief’s summaries, guides, and analyses of the IPCC’s fifth assessment report.
