Not a "second launch" of the
report, but a different media event to focus
on the in depth information about a particular
region and explore the richness
of the full report with the scientists
from that region, who worked on the relevant
chapters. The IPCC is organizing the briefings
with the organizational support of partner
institutions. Here are the locations, published
as soon as they are confirmed. The page
is constantly updated as more details are
available.
