@IPCC_CH

Thank you to the @IPCC_CH's 700+ experts from 90 nations for completing #AR6. A multilateral tour de force of #ClimateScience.

Here are 5 #infographics that help explain the individual reports captured in this #IPCC cycle.

A synthesis of the synthesis 🤔 is in the works!

@IPCC_CH

Does the enormously complex issue of #climatechange have to be presented to policymakers, and therefore the public, as the behemoth it really is?

Today I released my second #infographic explainer on the @IPCC_CH #AR6 reports.

eciu.net/analysis/infog…

#SummaryForPeople 🧵

@skepticscience

The amazing @skepticscience is even featuring it today, with added commentary, a real honour for a mere student of scientist.

@theresphysics @BaerbelW @johnfocook @KenCaldeira

@IPCC_CH

So, what does this, the longest explainer I've made yet, actually say?

Like the first edition — eciu.net/analysis/infog… — it kicks off with context about how we arrived at #IPCCAR6, on the @IPCC_CH itself and how it goes about communicating uncertainty.

@IPCC_CH

#OnThisDay a year ago the @IPCC_CH released its report on #climatescience. Governments endorsed then largely ignored.

How do we get IPCC summaries across to apes with smartphones, especially those roaming corridors of power for whom they're intended? 🧵

@KateRaworth

With much difficulty. But visuals help. They not only steal attention, they have the ability to go directly into long-term memory where they're indelibly etched.

@KateRaworth @waitbutwhy @jamespeshaw

Hence why I made a belated #explainer of the first #IPCCAR6 report, the first of three I'll publish before #COP27.

Better late than never, esp. when the next IPCC compendium won't drop until ~2030, the year when interim carbon-cutting pledges should be being met.
