addressing the global climate change
challenge needs to be the world's top priority
priority
More Than A Century of burning fossil
fuels together with unequal and
unsustainable use of energy and land
Lifestyles and patterns of consumption
and production have resulted in global
warming of 1.1 degrees Celsius above
pre-industrial levels the 2023 synthesis
reported the intergovernmental panel on
climate change presents a comprehensive
analysis of human-cored climate change
and lays out Pathways to available
Solutions this report clearly indicates
that we we have the world has the normal
technology and tools to address this
problem the problem is
those tools and knowledge has to be
implemented and deployed at a much
faster speed throughout the world and
for that to happen there's a need for a
very close collaboration between
developed and developing countries
and we also we also recognize that there
is still a large gap in financing support
support
and also technology transfer from
developed to developing countries and
this synthesis report indicate that
those means of implementation is a
critical enabler for the world to
achieve the climate stabilization goals
the extraordinary scope of the effort
needed to limit global warming to one
and a half degrees Celsius was
highlighted by the ipcc in 2018.
five years later a continuous rise in
greenhouse gas emissions has made that
challenge even more difficult
so we we know the warming is due to us
as humans from simulations that we
undertake with and without human
influence we know we've warmed by 1.1
degrees centigrade to Global ready and
we know that in less than until we reach
Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions we
will continue to warm the planet the
window of opportunity to limit warming
to 1.5 is rapidly closing the window of
opportunity to limit warming to two
degrees is equally perilously close
with every increment of warming the
severity of impacts across natural and
human systems is projected to intensify
changes in climate and extremes become
more pronounced and widespread
we see changes like increases in heat
waves and intense rainfall events that
present risks to people and ecosystems
around the world [Music]
[Music]
the risks impacts and related losses and
damages escalate and when these risks
combine with other Adverse Events they
Cascade across all sectors and regions
and are becoming increasingly difficult
to manage
those who have historically emitted the
least are the ones who are at the
Forefront of climate impacts so those
are the ones who are most vulnerable to
the impact of human cause climate change
and this is an important finding because
this is important from a climate Justice
point of view and it links to some of
the new findings we are finding that
losses and damages are already happening
and again losses and damages are being
felt disproportionately by some of these
more vulnerable communities
almost half of the world's population
live in regions that are highly
vulnerable to climate change
millions of people are already affected
by food insecurity around 50 of the
world's population is experiencing water
scarcity for at least some part of the year
year
in recent decades people in vulnerable
regions face a 15 times greater chance
of dying from floods droughts and storms
concerning specifically the rate of
warming even if global warming continues
slower global warming allows us to adapt
more easily or with less difficulty of
course there are levels of warming where
adaptation is not possible anymore and
we're already reaching
parts of these
limits to adaptation the faster it goes
and the higher we go the more it will be
difficult to adapt at some point we
won't be able to adapt anymore [Music]

deep and Rapid reductions in greenhouse
gas emissions can limit warming to 1.5
or 2 degrees the best estimate of
reaching 1.5 is in the early 2030s it is
possible to reduce warming by achieving
and sustaining net negative carbon
dioxide emissions however exceeding a
warming level and returning to it
presents risks to ecosystems in other aspects
aspects
thank you
the decisions made in this decade will
determine the hotter and future world
current and future Generations live in
these decisions will impact life on
Earth for thousands of years
climate resilient development
implementing measures and actions to
adapt to climate change while reducing
or avoiding greenhouse gas emissions can
enhance sustainable development and
secure a livable future for all
the ipcc synthesis report shows that
protecting conserving and restoring
ecosystems is really important for
accelerating action on climate change in
this decade
many high carbon ecosystems such as
forests and peatlands are valuable
carbon stores that hold greenhouse gases
out of the atmosphere and limit global
warming however these ecosystems can
only help us if we keep the level of
global warming relatively low such as by
limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius
Celsius
this report recognizes that climate
ecosystems and biodiversity and human
societies are interdependent every
action we take affects the Earth system
effective and Equitable conservation of
approximately 30 to 50 percent of the
earth's land fresh water and ocean will
help ensure a healthy planet
depending upon the national circumstances
circumstances
the countries can absorb our reports
main the suggestions of
pursuing climate resilient development
so that they can develop their own
economy while at the same time reduce
carbon emissions
so aggregated together the world as a
whole will be able to achieve that
digital carbon goal within next three decades
decades
significant investment in developing
countries can also avert Rising risks
especially for vulnerable groups and
regions where the transitions have to
happen the fastest
and have the least access to finances in
order for that to happen is in
developing countries
that is where 84 percent of the world's
population lives
these are the places which are going to
be urbanizing very fast they are the
young population that's going to be the
future of the world
so this is a message of Hope and as
we're at the same time this is a
important message for the world to take
in to make the economy make the
development clean and climate friendly
the synthesis report was prepared by a
team of 93 authors it was the final
element of ipcc's sixth assessment
report and brought the sixth cycle to a close
close
in this cycle the ipcc organized 19
plenary sessions twice as many compared
to any previous cycle
many took place under challenging
circumstances of covid-19 funding
more than 780 scientists volunteered
their time and expertise to work on ipcc reports
reports
41 percent of them were from developing nations
nations
33 percent of ipcc report were female scientists
scientists
during the drafting of the reports more
than 100
000 pieces of scientific literature were
assessed ipcc Secretariat ensured that
this important report were delivered on
time to contribute to the critical
International negotiation in climate
change under United Nations [Music]
