http://climate.weather.com/ You'll find some things in here!Causes of the Global warming the pollution with CFC that is destroying the ozone,but not only the CFC.Because of this now we have two big holes in the ozone and the UV is affecting the people who live there and it appears that it's melting the polar caps too! To reduce it...we'll have to eliminate the products which contain CFC!

Some gases ("greenhouse gases") let sunlight in, which warms the Earth, and then block that heat from leaving. That's the "greenhouse effect", and it's a natural thing.
Man is making excessive amounts of greenhouse gases, mostly by burning fossil fuels. That causes the delicate natural balance to go out of whack and the Earth warms. That's global warming.
It won't be a Hollywood style disaster. Gradually coastal areas will flood and agriculture will be damaged. But it will be very bad. Rich countries will cope, but it will take huge amounts of money. In poor countries many people will die of starvation, but not all of them.
Most scientists say, in 20-50 years. But we need to start right now to fix it, fixing it will take even longer than that.
Good sites with a lot of information:

global warming is product of a much larger thing called Climate Change... and it's natural...
over the course of the Earth's history, things like Carbon dioxide levels, the paths of the sea currents, and the types of animals on the Earth have changed greatly, and continue to change...
the earth makes changes too...
it's natural and is the Earth's way of regulating things
There is currently a warm current that runs from the equator... there by melting the Polar Ice cap... as it melts the sea level rises... when the level rises enough... the current will change and run strait across Mexico and Central America... Then the Ice caps will freeze again... and the sea levels will decrease, and the process will begin again...
It's Natural... and we just have to deal with it
