One of the largest, most comprehensive reports on climate change is due out soon.

One of the largest, most comprehensive reports on climate change is due out soon. The group responsible for it has released a teaser report, and virtually everything in it is absolutely terrifying. At least it is if you're in touch with objective reality; if you're a political conservative primarily interested in maintaining the status quo, nothing in it will change your mind that everything's fine.
