Abstract

Interview with Abdalah Mokssit, secretary since 2016 of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). A mathematician and meteorologist born in Morocco (1961), he has worked since 1987 at the National Meteorological Department of his country, of which he became director in 2009. The IPCC is the internationally accredited authority on climate change and produces reports that receive the agreement of leading climate scientists and the consensus of participating governments. Among other awards, the IPCC received the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007. The interview covers the history of the IPCC, the current and future situation regarding climate change and reflects on the role of science and technology in this regard.
