UN global warming report The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC), a UN body set up to study the science and effects of global warming, released its second report this year on April 6. While the first report released by the panel in February focused on the scientific evidence of global warming. this second report dealt with what kind of impact global warming will have on the world. The report said that global warming will lead to greater numbers of extinctions of animals and plants and shortage of water in some places. It also warned of increasing extreme weather conditions such as floods or droughts. The report said that poor nations will be the hardest hit by global warming although they contributed the least. It also mentioned that lower-lying areas along coastlines would get flooded due to rising sea levels that result from melting polar glaciers.
