IPCC report 2022: Climate change and its economic consequences
The United Nation’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released the second part of its sixth assessment report on Monday. Vetted and approved by 270 authors and 195 governments, it tells the world how climate change may spell disaster for humanity. The third and final part of this report is likely to come out in April this year.
The first assessment report telling about the effects of climate change was released way back in 1990. The four subsequent reports were published in 1995, 2001, 2007, and 2015.
The latest report has for the first time assessed the regional effect of climate change. According to the assessment, several big cities of the world are at risk.
