Here is our editorial, which highlights three points:
1 Linkages exist between climate change and SDGs.
2 Breaking the Working Group silos could holistically assess these linkages.
3 Understanding these linkages contributes to the post-2030 agenda.

The 62nd @ipcc.bsky.social meeting in #China next week can make the upcoming #IPCC reports more policy-relevant by holistically reflecting on all #SDGs.

#Climatechange and #sustainability cannot be seen in isolation. SDGs 3, 4, 5, 10 & 16 are not adequately reflected in the previous IPCC reports.
References to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) increased between the IPCC’s fifth and sixth assessment cycles (AR5 & AR6). Left panel: The x-axis depicts the occurrence of references to 17 SDGs (note the log scale), represented by the numbers in colour and measured based on the keywords related to SDG targets. Except for SDG 7 (clean and affordable energy), references to SDGs in AR6 outnumber the AR5 references. Right panel: the sentiments of the referred associations between climate change and sustainability are slightly more often positive than negative. The length of the lines depicts the occurrence of the text related to SDG targets (on a log scale), and only five or more words associated with these sentiments are considered. Climate change and sustainability linkages in AR5 and AR6, compiled according to climate change impact, adaptation, and mitigation. We consider positive linkage to be a synergy and negative linkage to be a trade-off based on the synthesized reasons behind the linkages between climate change and sustainable development goals (SDGs). An SDG target can also be both positively and negatively linked with climate change. Figs. S6–S9 present these linkages with different mechanisms for climate impact, adaptation, and mitigation. Table S1 provides the detailed reasons behind these synergies and trade-offs and lists the full names of the targets. Abbreviations used are economic (eco.), infrastructure (infra.), communities (comm.), responsible consumption and production (respon. con. and prod.), justice (just.), and institution (instit.).
