The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
(IPCC) is the leading international body for the
assessment of climate change.
It was established by UNEP and WMO1988 to provide
the world with a clear scientific view on the current
state of knowledge in climate change and its
potential environmental and socio-economic
impacts.
IPCCC

IPCC Report 2014 on impacts, vulnerablity and adapataion
Risk of climate-related impacts results from the interaction of climate-related
hazards with the vulnerability and exposure of human and natural systems.
Changes in both the climate system (left) and socioeconomic processes including
adaptation and mitigation (right) are drivers of hazards, exposure, and
vulnerability.
