“Climate impacts are already more widespread and severe than expected. We are locked into even worse impacts from climate change in the near term. Risks will escalate quickly with higher temperatures, often causing irreversible impacts of climate change. Inequity, conflict, and development challenges heighten vulnerability to climate risks. Adaptation is crucial….but some impacts of climate change are already too severe to adapt to. The world needs urgent action now to address losses and damages (There is) a rapidly closing window of opportunity for climate action”
