Chapter 1 - Framing and context. (External link.)

Understanding the impacts of 1.5°C global warming above pre-industrial levels and related global emission pathways in the context of strengthening the response to the threat of climate change, sustainable development and efforts to eradicate poverty.

Chapter 2 - Mitigation pathways compatible with 1.5°C in the context of sustainable development. (External link.)

Showing how emissions can be brought to zero by mid-century stay within the small remaining carbon budget for limiting global warming to 1.5°C.

Chapter 3 - Impacts of 1.5°C of Global Warming on Natural and Human Systems. (External link.)

Why is it necessary and even vital to maintaining the global temperature increase below 1.5°C versus higher levels? Adaptation will be less difficult. Our world will suffer fewer negative impacts on intensity and frequency of extreme events, on resources, ecosystems, biodiversity, food security, cities, tourism and carbon removal.

Chapter 4 - Strengthening and Implementing the Global Response (External link.)

The globall response to warming of 1.5 C comprises transitions in land and ecosystem, energy, urban and infrastructure, and industrial systems. The feasibility of mitigation and adaptation options, and the enabling conditions for strengthening and implementing the systemic changes, are assessed in this chapter.
