This article presents projections of future changes in aridity on small islands and evaluates overall changes in freshwater stress in small island developing states at warming levels of 1.5 and 2°C above pre-industrial level.

Indicators used to define limits of warming and those used to track the evolution of the Earth System under climate change are not directly comparable.

To support implementation of the Paris Agreement, the new HAPPI ensemble of 20 bias-corrected simulations of four climate models was used to drive two global hydrological models in worlds approximately 1.5 °C and 2 °C warmer than pre-industrial.

This brief provides a background on loss and damage, its importance for the Caribbean, tools and methodologies to determine costs of loss and damage, and potential innovative financing mechanisms.

Climate Analytics’ submission to the Talanoa Dialogue summarises the latest scientific findings relating to the 1.5°C limit.
