This report explores and defines overshoot emissions pathways in relation to the 1.5°C of the Paris Agreement.

By combining our spatially resolved database with grid-cell-level human-attributable changes in temperature and precipitation, we infer that attributable anthropogenic impacts may be occurring across 80% of the world’s land area, where 85% of the population reside.

The impacts of climate change on the food system are a key concern for societies and policy makers globally. But crop growth is not the only factor that matters for the food production. Climate impacts on the labour force through increased heat stress also need to be considered.

Although effects on labour is one of the most tangible and attributable climate impact, our quantification of these effects is insufficient and based on weak methodologies. This study uses a new method to improve estimates of the effects of climate change on labour effectiveness.

The IPCC special report on climate change and land outlines how land is subject to human pressure in the Anthropocene. This report is a brief on the contents on the IPCC report.
