Towards new scenarios for analysis of emissions, climate change, impacts, and response strategies

This report summarizes the findings and recommendations from the Expert Meeting on New Scenarios. Adhering to the catalytic role defined by the IPCC, the report thus describes the current state of planning by the scientific community for preparation of new scenarios. Noting it is a "work in progress", many of the planned activities encouraging communication and integration across the climate modeling, impacts, adaptation, and integrated assessment communities will require a great deal of effort by the research communities and additional support from governments and funding agencies.
