No, the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) does not state that there is no increase in extreme weather events. In fact, the IPCC's reports explicitly state that human-caused climate change has increased the frequency and intensity of some extreme weather events.
Key points from IPCC reports:
Observed increases:
The IPCC's Sixth Assessment Report (2021) concluded that human-caused increases in greenhouse gases have led to an increase in the frequency and intensity of some extreme weather events since pre-industrial times.
Specific examples:
The IPCC has identified increases in the intensity of temperature extremes, the probability of compound events (e.g., heatwaves and droughts), and the frequency and intensity of heatwaves and heavy precipitation events.
Future projections:
The IPCC also projects that these trends will continue and intensify with further global warming.
Attribution:
The IPCC's work also includes event attribution studies, which assess the extent to which climate change has influenced specific extreme weather events.
In summary: The IPCC's findings consistently show a link between human-caused climate change and an increase in the frequency and intensity of certain extreme weather events.
