This 2012 report demonstrates clearly that climate change is having an increasingly dramatic and harmful effect on communities in developing countries.

It does so by sharing the voices and experiences of people across the developing world who are living with the reality of climate change.

You can also download a summary of the report and the original 2005 report, which the 2012 version builds upon.
