Hardcopy of IPCCs "2007 Synthesis Report?"

October 24, 2009 2:16 PM

Can I buy a hardcopy of the IPCC's "Climate Change 2007 Synthesis Report?"

I see hardcopies of the detail reports and the 2001 synthesis reports for sale. I see free PDFs but not hardcopies of the 2007 synthesis report. Am I missing something?

By "hardcopy" I mean "bound book."

"Hard copies of the Summaries for Policymakers, Technical Summaries, Synthesis Reports and Technical Papers in English and in other UN languages, and CD-ROMs of the full reports, can be obtained free of charge from the IPCC Secretariat. A limited number of hard copies of the full reports are also available on request from the IPCC Secretariat for developing countries and countries with economies in transition. Methodology Reports and Supporting Material can be obtained from the IPCC Secretariat or a Technical Support Unit as indicated."

Hi pseeudonick ... I saw that, too, but I took it to mean that the hardcopies are restricted to practitioners and government officials.

I suspect they are available to anyone who asks. You are after all a stakeholder.
