Earth is in more hot water than ever before: Sea levels are rising at an ever-faster rate as ice and snow shrink, and oceans are getting more acidic and losing oxygen, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change said in a report issued as world leaders met at the United Nations. https://www.ipcc.ch/srocc/download-report/
In addition to the Special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate, the current Sixth Assessment Cycle includes two more Special Reports:
- Global Warming of 1.5°C, an IPCC special report on the impacts of global warming of 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and related global greenhouse gas emission pathways, in the context of strengthening the global response to the threat of climate change, sustainable development, and efforts to eradicate poverty was launched in October 2018
- Climate Change and Land, an IPCC special report on climate change, desertification, land degradation, sustainable land management, food security, and greenhouse gas fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems, is due to be completed in August 2019
The IPCC is also currently preparing the 2019 Refinement to the 2006 IPCC Guidelines on National Greenhouse Gas Inventories, for completion in May 2019.
