IPCC does not fall under the UNFCCC
It is misleading to list the IPCC here. The IPCC was set up by WMO and UNEP in 1988 (before there was a UNFCCC), and continues to work independently. As such it reports to and responds to requests from the UNFCCC Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice, but it is governed separately by its member states and the IPCC Bureau. While UNFCCC negotiators rely on IPCC publications, the IPCC is not a body under the UNFCCC. rjtklein 08:19, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
