The Synthesis Report (SYR) of the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) was released, summarizing the state of knowledge on climate change, its widespread impacts and risks, and climate change mitigation and adaptation. It integrates the main conclusions of the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) based on the contributions of the three working groups and the three special reports. The Summary for Policy Makers (SPM) is structured in three parts:
A. Current situation and trends, SPM.
B. Future climate change, long-term risks and responses, and SPM.
C. Short-term responses.
The report recognizes the interdependence of climate, ecosystems and biodiversity, and human societies; the value of the various forms of knowledge; and the close links between climate change adaptation, mitigation, ecosystem health, human well-being and sustainable development, and reflects the increasing diversity of actors involved in climate action.
Based on scientific understanding, the key conclusions can be formulated as statements of fact or associated with a level of confidence assessed using the IPCC calibrated language.
