The Nobel Prize Winning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
from:The Intergovernmental panel on climate change is a panel of qualified scientific personnel set up under the umbrella of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The mandate of the Intergovernmental panel on climate change is to provide government bodies, decision makers, and all interested in climate change, its causes, affects and solutions with comprehensive scientific, technical, and socio economic information without bias to the parties concerned.

The Intergovernmental panel on climate change is a scientific body created in 1988 to study the very serious issue of climate change and its impact on the earth’s environment. The research offered in the reports and articles submitted by scientists from all over the globe is based upon human induced climate change, anthropogenic climate change, and not climate change occurring by natural phenomena.
Policymakers, professionals, and students use the reports and findings regularly submitted by the Intergovernmental panel on climate change to further their education and work relative endeavors. The Parts of the reports have been used as a launching point for the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (1992), and this convention and as a reference point for the Kyoto Protocol of 1997.
