Abstract

In order to prevent catastrophic climate change, humanity has one generation, from now until 2050, to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions to zero. Founded in 1988 by the World Meteorological Organization and the United Nations Environment Programme, the IPCC's mission is to provide the international community with the most recent scientific, technical, and socioeconomic information on climate change. Since then, the IPCC's multivolume assessments have been crucial in persuading countries to adopt and implement measures to combat climate change, such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Kyoto Protocol.
