The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is an intergovernmental body of the United Nations established in 1988. It assesses the science related to climate change, its impacts and future risks, and options for adaptation and mitigation. While the IPCC does not conduct its own research, it provides governments with scientific information they can use to develop climate policies, including information gathered by Earth-observing satellites. The IPCC's reports, including assessment reports, special reports, and methodology reports, are used to inform policy-making decisions and the global response to climate change.
