This multidimensional assessment of climate change addresses trends,<br />

case studies <strong>and</strong> scenarios, focusing on health issues. Its premise is that<br />

climate change will affect human health, as well as the ecosystems <strong>and</strong> the<br />

species on which we depend. These impacts on health will have economic<br />

repercussions.<br />

This document served as a background paper for the Human Development<br />

Report 2007/2008 “Fighting climate change: Human Solidarity in a divided<br />

world.” It analyzes the disadvantages for human development caused by<br />

the impact of climate-related disasters. It analyzes data about homes in four<br />

countries that have suffered from recurrent climatic disasters, such as floods<br />

<strong>and</strong> droughts.<br />

This PowerPoint presentation was shown to the high-level round table on<br />

climate change at the 15 th Session of the United Nations Commission on<br />

Sustainable Development (CSD-15). It details recommended adaptation <strong>and</strong><br />

mitigation strategies.<br />

Represents three years’ work by about 450 main authors <strong>and</strong> 800 contributing<br />

authors. It also has comments by approximately 100 experts <strong>and</strong> government<br />

representatives. The report answers nine questions about scientific, technical<br />

<strong>and</strong> socio-economic questions on climate change.<br />

This volume, which forms part of the Third Assessment Report (TAR), has<br />

been produced by Working Group II (WGII) of the IPCC <strong>and</strong> focuses on<br />

the environmental, social <strong>and</strong> economic consequences of climate change<br />

<strong>and</strong> potential adaptation responses. It consists of 19 chapters covering the<br />

sensitivity, adaptive capacity, <strong>and</strong> vulnerability of natural <strong>and</strong> human systems<br />

to climate change, <strong>and</strong> the potential impacts <strong>and</strong> adaptation options at<br />

regional <strong>and</strong> global scales.<br />
