The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has prepared a draft report titled: ``The IPCC Assessment of Knowledge Relevant to the Interpretation of Article 2 of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change: A Synthesis Report 1995'' based on material prepared and reviewed by each of its working groups (on science, impacts and response strategies, and economics and crosscutting issues). This draft 38-page report (plus tables and figures), and its 8-page Summary for Policymakers, needs to be peer- reviewed by experts and governments. The IPCC Secretariat requires comments on this report to effect appropriate revisions prior to the final acceptance of the synthesis report and review and line-by-line adoption of the Summary for Policymakers at a plenary session of the IPCC in December 1995 in Rome. The U.S. Subcommittee on Global Change Research (SGCR) will be responsible for coordinating the preparations of the comments of the United States Government. Through this notice, we are announcing the availability of the draft report, and requesting comments on the report by noon, September 6, 1995 from experts and interested groups and individuals.
