AI Summary
A meeting of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, was suspended on 16 October after governments could not agree on a release date for the panel’s seventh assessment cycle, AR7. The delay in publishing the report is unusual and could have serious implications for future climate policy. The impasse centers on when the scientific findings should be made public, a decision that has stalled the meeting. The outcome of the negotiations will determine when the assessment is released.
