They have a great environmental section with topics related to climate change and global warming, especially dealing with the governmental ends of things. All of the sources Terra Daily uses are properly credited. All of these articles are AFP orUPI wire stories, ESA or NASA. Any additional sources are given credit by proper parties.

The Pew Center on Climate Change - The Pew Center gives many wire news stories their figures and facts about climate change. Experts including scientists, mathematicians, business leaders, and policy makers come together to talk, based on sound science and level headed conversation, about economic growth as well as what we can do to protect the environment. The website is traceable and legitimate, all sources and contacts are viable.

Global Climate Change: Research Explorer - This website is updated regularly as well as great for research. They credit their sources thoroughly, and provide much detailed information on regional climate change and how climate change effects an individual area. This website is also great to find updated research information on because it works along side researchers daily to teach and educate the public on how it is effecting us now, and what is to come given certain circumstances.

The US EPA - Since the topic is dealing with countries and climate change, a good place to start would be with the United States, the country with the highest carbon emissions. This website is for and based on the United States, and deals with four major aspects of the US and climate change. These include; science, US Climate Policy, greenhouse gas missions, health and environmental effects and what you can do. This website also fits the criteria for website legitimacy.

The WMO - The World Meteorological Organization is a specialized agency for The United Nations. The UN uses this branch as an authoritative voice on Earth's atmosphere, interactions with the oceans, the climate and water resources. They attend UN meetings and influence policies with their information produced. This website is credited, updated and regulated, making for a good source.

The GEF - One hundred and seventy eight countries are part of the Global Environmental Facility. The GEF is currently being revitalized and is undergoing some changes but is a good site for regulating what countries that are part of it are doing to control and eliminate climate change. Although undergoing change, the web site is up to date, well organized, credible and factual.

The United Nations - The United Nations deals with all the countries and climate change. This is a good website because it deals with all/ almost all countries and what they are doing about climate change. The UN has various agencies and informants on the issue, all credible and cited sources.

IPCC - The IPCC is a good site for referencing research information and declares that it will be unbiased. The IPCC is open to the members of the UNEP and WMO. The IPCC allows for anyone to download the full reports from meeting and councils as well as presentations and speeches. These will allow you to fully understand a country's place on the matter and what they are or are not doing about climate change. This is another credible source and is very informational, since these are direct statements and reports from meetings of most countries.
