The Global Tipping Points Report 2025

This educational resource collection provides access to scientific reports, policy briefings and case studies examining tipping points in the Earth's climate and ecological systems. Developed through the Global Tipping Points initiative, led by the University of Exeter, it explores how environmental changes can trigger substantial, potentially irreversible consequences for natural systems and human societies.

The resources examine risks affecting the Amazon rainforest, warm-water coral reefs, Atlantic Ocean circulation and mountain glaciers. They also explore positive tipping points, where changes in technology, economics and behaviour can accelerate the transition towards more sustainable systems.

Materials include the 2025 Global Tipping Points Report, summaries for policymakers and case studies covering renewable energy, electric vehicles, heat pumps and alternative proteins. Together, they provide evidence to support understanding of environmental risks, systemic change and opportunities for accelerating climate action.

Access requirements: Free access. No registration, login or payment is indicated for accessing the resources and downloadable reports.
