No sea protects the UK from climate change, but The Gulf Stream is a warm ocean current that brings warm water from the Carribean Sea to Western Europe. This keeps the UK warmer than, say, Canada, at the moment, and as long as the current still flows.

Is there a website for global warming?

"Global warming" is now referred to as "Climate Change" as scientists have begun to realise that variation in the Earth's climate may actually cause cooling as well as warming. The main organisation involved with climate change research is the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (see the related links). This was founded by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) to provide scientific information on climate change. In the UK there is the UK Climate Impacts Program website and the Met Office website "Your guide to climate change" as well as the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research and the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia amongst many others. This is by no means an exhaustive list, but any of the above would certainly be good places to start your search for information. Please see the related links
