It explains developments in emission reduction and mitigation efforts, assessing the impact of national climate pledges in relation to long-term emissions goals. The WGIII contribution was composed by 278 authors from 65 countries and benefited from a further 354 contributing authors. Over 18,000 scientific publications were assessed and over 59,000 expert and government review comments provided and addressed. Of all authors of the AR6, 41% came from developing countries and 29% were women. The Working Group III contribution to the Sixth Assessment Report was finalized on 4 April 2022. The SBSTA and IPCC will organise a joint three-hour event during SBSTA 56 to provide a forum for Parties to directly engage with IPCC experts to enhance their understanding of the new knowledge and key findings contained in the WGIII report.
