When was the IPCC established?

  1. 1990

  2. 1988

  3. 1995

  4. 2000

The correct answer is: 1988

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was established in 1988. The creation of the IPCC was a response to growing concerns about climate change and its impacts, and it was initiated by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The purpose of the IPCC is to assess scientific information related to climate change, provide policymakers with comprehensive information, and produce assessment reports that reflect the state of knowledge about climate change and its potential impacts. The choice of 1988 as the year of establishment highlights the initial recognition of climate change as a significant global issue that required coordinated international action and scientific assessment.
