- Summary:
-
This report provides an update on the science regarding climate impacts in the Pacific. It explains that the impacts of a warming planet are already severe for island nations, and without urgent action, will be catastrophic in future. This report clarifies the actions required from major emitters to ensure survival of all Pacific island states. The window to avoid catastrophic impacts is closing fast. Global emissions must be halved by 2030, which means that wealthy nations like Australia should be planning for deeper emissions cuts this decade.
