Ahead of COP31, the Turkish Academy of Sciences (TÜBA) prepared this synthesis report, which brings together the collective expertise of 16 scientists from TÜBA Working Groups. Comprising seven chapters, the report charts a science-based path from electrification and zero waste to climate-resilient cities and green industrialisation. It explores how education, technology and artificial intelligence can accelerate climate resilience worldwide. Based on rigorous research, the report provides specific policy recommendations for the COP31 Action Agenda. The report reflects TÜBA's commitment to evidence-based climate science and international cooperation. Designed for scientists, policymakers and diplomats, the report calls for a global consensus based on shared responsibility. As Türkiye prepares to host COP31 in Antalya, this report serves as a scientific guide for climate action. It affirms that, as with lasting peace, lasting sustainability depends on unity across nations and disciplines.
