When reading the Summary of Policy Makers (IPCC, 2021), the word unprecedented caught my attention. In Chapter 11, unprecedented is paired with extremes to convey human-induced climate impacts and the breadth and magnitude of the extremes to be expected from the impacts. Unprecedented extremes<\/strong> are \u201cevents not experienced in the past [and] will occur in the future in five different ways\u201d (Seneviratne et al., 2021, p. 1610). FAQ 11.2 Figure 1 shows that an extreme event may be unprecedented when it is more extensive, occurs more frequently, happens in an unexpected location, or at a different time of year and in new combinations.<\/p>\n
