Summary
The IPCC was set up jointly by the World Meteorological Organization and the UNEP to provide an authoritative international statement of scientific opinion on climate change. This volume reviews what is known, unknown, uncertain and controversial about the potential impacts of climate change. Its conclusions include that some regions, especially in the tropics and subtropics, may suffer significant adverse consequences for food security, even though the effects of climate change on global food production may prove small to moderate.
