The Discovery of Global Warming (suggested for browsing)
A hypertext history of how scientists came to (partly) understand what people are doing to cause climate change.
This Website created by Spencer Weart supplements his much shorter book, which tells the history of climate change research as a single story. On this Website you will find a more complete history in dozens of essays on separate topics, updated annually.

"Feeling the Heat"
This guide provides an introduction to climate change and shows how the international community is responding. Starting with a scientific perspective, it explains the causes and possible impacts of climate change; it also explores ways of coping and dealing with the problem. The final sections provide an insight into the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the stricter legally binding agreement: the Kyoto Protocol.

RealClimate is a commentary site on climate science by working climate scientists for the interested public and journalists. They aim to provide a quick response to developing stories and provide the context sometimes missing in mainstream commentary. The discussion is restricted to scientific topics and will not get involved in any political or economic implications of the science.
