Access to major new resource related to global warming and climate change added to PMWL
10 December 2019 – Access to a new resource has been added to the PM World Library related to solving global problems. The resource is titled “Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)” and is the United Nations body for assessing the science related to climate change.
Created in 1988 by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the objective of the IPCC is to provide governments at all levels with scientific information that they can use to develop climate policies. IPCC reports are also a key input into international climate change negotiations.
The IPCC is an organization of governments that are members of the United Nations or WMO. The IPCC currently has 195 members. Thousands of people from all over the world contribute to the work of the IPCC. For the assessment reports, IPCC scientists volunteer their time to assess the thousands of scientific papers published each year to provide a comprehensive summary of what is known about the drivers of climate change, its impacts and future risks, and how adaptation and mitigation can reduce those risks.
To access this resource, go to https://pmworldlibrary.net/solving-global-problems/, select “Addressing Climate Change”, scroll down to organizations. Free access to all but please consider registering. Free Trial membership provides free access to everything in the library for 30 days.
