Abstract

In the sixth Assessment Report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change focussed on five scenarios for the future of climate change. The use of scenarios makes possible the exploration of different possible evolutions of human societies and their consequences for the climate. Studying a range of futures can help governments and societies make the right decisions.
