Explanation

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is a scientific intergovernmental body initially set up in 1988 by two United Nations organizations, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), and later endorsed by the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA).
