These biggest challenges to worldwide peace are closely interlinked. Global warming impacts, such as increasingly disastrous weather events, regional water scarcity or local crop failure, hit those hardest who have the least means for coping. And the fossil fuel dividend is cashed in by those who are already wealthy. Without enhancing global equity, climate change cannot be contained; and without reducing greenhouse-gas emissions, fairness cannot be realized. Stabilizing the climate and combating poverty is largely the same thing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Weblinks to the recently published Worldbank report &#8220;Turn down the heat&#8221; by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, <a href=\"-%20https:\/\/www.pik-potsdam.de\/news\/press-releases\/201econfronting-the-new-normal201c-world-bank-launches-pik-climate-report\">here<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.worldbank.org\/\">here<\/a>.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Weblinks to the recently published report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ipcc.ch\/\">here,<\/a>\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ipcc.ch\/\">here <\/a>&amp; <a href=\"http:\/\/mitigation2014.org\/\">here<\/a>.<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Aljazeera&#8217;s optimistic analysis, <a href=\"http:\/\/america.aljazeera.com\/articles\/2014\/11\/29\/climate-change-summitperu.html\">here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>For more information, please contact the PIK press office:<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">Phone: +49 331 288 25 07<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s3\">E-Mail: <a href=\"mailto:press@pik-potsdam.de\"><span class=\"s5\">presse@pik-potsdam.de<\/span><\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PIK_climate\">Follow us on twitter: @PIK_climate<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starting Monday, at the UN climate summit COP20 in Lima delegates from more than 190 nations will discuss a new climate agreement.
