FAR

1st IPCC Assessment (1990): FAR: unequivocal detection of human impact not likely for a decade

TAR

3rd (2001) TAR: most of the warming in the last 50 years is likely (>66%) due to human activities

SAR

2nd (1995) SAR: balance of evidence suggests discernible human influence

AR4

4th (2007) AR4: most of the warming very likely (> 90%) due human activity 4th (2007): warming will most strongly and quickly impact the global poor SRREN (2011): 80% clean by 2050 possible, if …
