Answer 1

General advice

Don't trust a website that has .com or .org  as much as you can trust a .gov or a .edu (if it is original university/govt. scientific reports and data, NOT the often politcally motivated "executive summaries" and "press summaries" written by politicians rather than scientists)

.com and .org writers are either getting paid to write, or have a political point of view for their "org"

gov and edu scientific sites are usually much more boring to read, with long boring data tables, but they are usually not as biased or rewritten to fit a certain point of view... which is why most people ignore them and choose to read the more biased, but easy to read, .org and .com sites

Learn to recognize biased writing styles.  Lots of flashy graphics and catchy slogans for the kids are big warning signs.  Sentences with lots of emotional words, and insults for people with opposing viewpoints are also big warning signs.

So, pretty much every website listed above by the previous post easily gives itself away as biased.  

Find the data (suggested starting points are the NOAA and NASA) and make your own conclusions.

That's supposed to be the whole point of science in the first place, isn't it?

You're doing a science project, not a politics and propaganda project.

Answer 3

http://www.realclimate.org

"climate science from climate scientists"

http://www.pewclimate.org/

http://www.reuters.com/article/scienceNe...

http://www.spiegel.de/international/worl...

This should be clickable for you and it's excellent.  Also see the main site:

By the way, I can't believe anyone is still recommending the "swindle" movie, which has been thoroughly refuted.

It is simply a political statement which distorts science.  

"The science might be bunkum, the research discredited. But all that counts for Channel 4 is generating controversy."

Gore's movie may be a little over dramatic, but it has the basic science right.  This movie does not.

Channel 4 itself undercuts the movie in a funny way.  If you go to their website on the movie you find links to real global warming information.  They also say "Confused now?  Ask the Expert."  The link for questions goes to a respected mainstream scientist who supports (mostly) human responsibility for global warming.
