Summary

This brochure is part of the Working Group III contribution to the Fourth Assessment Report of the IPCC. It contains the Summary for Policymakers and the Technical Summary of the report. A description of mitigation options for the various societal sectors that contribute to emissions forms the core of this report. Seven chapters cover mitigation options in energy supply, transport, buildings, industry, agriculture, forestry and waste management, with one additional chapter dealing with the cross-sectoral issues. It combines information from bottom-up technological studies with results of top-down modelling exercises and provides policy-relevant information on the relation between the stringency of stabilisation targets and the timing and amount of mitigation necessary. The summary for policymakers and the technical summary (in Chinese, English, French, Spanish or Russian), as well as the full report in English, can be assessed via the Web site: www.ipcc.ch.
