Agricultural microinsurance is currently being tested in a wide variety of settings to support smallholder farmers in developing countries in coping with the effects of climate change, such as droughts, floods, or increased frequency and severity of infestations. This paper shows that microinsurance can also help smallholders to adapt to climate change.

The second report in the Turn down the heat series looks at the likely impacts on three vulnerable regions if the world continues on its current trajectory and warms by 2°C over pre-industrial times by mid-century and continues to become 4°C warmer by 2100.

This report provides a snapshot of recent scientific literature and new analyses of likely impacts and risks that would be associated with a 4°C warming within this century.

Sea-level rise is a critical and uncertain climate change risk, involving timescales of centuries.

This paper introduces a new approach to probabilistic projections of regional climate change.
