Start with the Summary for Policymakers—it's the distilled, agreed-upon core. Working Group I is the physical science basis, II covers impacts and adaptation, and III is about mitigation. Those terms like 'likely' (>90% probability) and 'high confidence' (strong evidence, high agreement) are calibrated language to convey certainty.
I say this because my job is to translate these dense assessments into actionable notes for ministers; the precise, graded uncertainty is what separates a policy recommendation from academic debate.
