Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
General Assembly
Topic: Fossil fuels and their effects on the climate
The IPCC is a department within the UN that does scientific research related to climate change. They provide international policymakers with scientific data on climate change, its implications, and the future risks to help them create plans to mitigate climate change-related issues.
In this committee, delegates will be expected to have a general understanding of the topic of fossil fuels and their effects on the climate, and their country’s stance on it. Position papers are highly recommended, but not mandatory. However, position papers will be a requirement for awards consideration.
