SREX: Lessons for the water sector

The document serves as a thematic summary of the IPCC SREX report, focusing on the science and societal implications of climate extremes for the water sector. It is designed to assist policy-makers and planners in understanding why extreme events are critical for water management, how the sector is affected, and what actions can be taken to build resilience.

• The SREX report provides a comprehensive scientific assessment of climate change and extreme weather events, developed over two and a half years by 220 expert authors and 19 review editors, incorporating nearly 19,000 comments and government approval.
