This document gathers quotations on the links between climate change and conflict in the IPCC Working Group II report Climate Change 2022: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability. As noted by adelphi: “These findings underline and confirm important lessons that have been emerging from recent research: climate change does contribute to increased conflict, but along indirect pathways and via intermediate factors such as governance. Adapting to and mitigating climate change can also play an important role in addressing many drivers of conflict and building peace.”
