Climate change consequences @ EC

Climate Signals

     · "...a digital science platform for cataloging and mapping the impacts of climate

     change. Currently in open-beta release, the platform is designed to identify the

     chain of connections between greenhouse gas emissions and individual climate

     events."

Impacts of climate change @ Sustainability for All

Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

     · The IPCC's Working Group II focuses on impacts, and the Table of Contents of its

          various reports provides a useful way of mapping out climate change impacts.

Impacts

The impacts of climate change are:

   (1) are extremely varied,

       (2) can be categorized in many different ways, and

            (3) can be difficult to disambiguate from both  

                 mitigation and adaptation measures.

Consequently, rather than list the many particular

   climate change impacts on this page, they are

   integrated into the Climate Change A>Z page (color

   coded with  I ), while others are distributed across

   several EarthWeb.info pages.
