Fifth Assessment Report - Working Group II
This document is from the Working Group II contribution to the IPCC's Fifth Assessment Report on climate change impacts, adaptation, and vulnerability. It summarizes that widespread impacts from climate change are already being observed around the world, vulnerability and exposure to risks varies significantly in different regions, and that adaptation efforts are already underway but need to be expanded to address increasing climate risks over time.
