Abstract

The proper acknowledgement and understanding of climate change induced risks and vulnerabilities are critical in the development of mitigation and adaptation policies. The paper summarizes and reviews the most important risks and vulnerabilities as assessed by the latest report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the leading international authority on evaluating scientific data and information on climate change. It concludes that while mitigation efforts should continue at even higher pace, adaptation measures based on sound scientific research should be stepped up.
