The United Nations-affiliated IPCC is an association of thousands of scientists from around the world that was founded in 1988. Since then it has released a report on the current state of scientific knowledge about climate change roughly every five years.Leaked versions of the new IPCC report warn that the world is close to missing a chance to limit the global warming that has occurred since the Industrial Revolution to two degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit), a goal that world leaders had previously agreed was an important target. Beyond that point, "impacts will begin to be unacceptably severe,"
the authors wrote.
