In the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) of the United Nations, thousands of scientists around the world work on evaluating scientific papers related to climate change that are published every year. Based on this work, they're able to provide policy makers and the general public with a comprehensive summary of what's known about the drivers of climate change, its impacts and future risks, and how adaptation and mitigation can reduce these risks. The latest (sixth) assessment report was completed in 2023.
Find out more about the IPCC, how it works, and the key findings from the first report of the AR6 in our poster "New UN Climate Report: More Data, Better Knowledge"!
