- Carbon Cycle - Sections concisely summarize the history of the element and its presence on earth, from its discovery in 1594 to topics such as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, fossil fuels, and carbon credits and sequestration.
- Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC) - Global-change data and information analysis for the US Department of Energy (DOE). Atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide and other radiatively active gases; role of the terrestrial biosphere and oceans in biogeochemical cycles of greenhouse gases; emissions of carbon dioxide; long-term climate trends; effects of elevated carbon dioxide on vegetation; vulnerability of coastal areas to rising sea level.
- Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC) - Responds to data and information concerning greenhouse effect and global climate change. Includes research reports, news and articles.
- Carbon Neutral Earth - Explains the concept of carbon neutrality and provides a directory of articles, information links, news headlines, and eco-friendly products to get people started.
- Carbon Sense Coalition - Voluntary group of people concerned about the extent to which carbon is vilified in Western societies. It aims to restore balance to the carbon debate and explain and defend the key role of carbon in the production of heat, light transportation and foodstuffs.
- Eejits Guides - Clear and concise guides to environmental issues including the carbon cycle and CO2 emissions.
- Global Carbon Project - Scientific partnership that aims to develop a complete picture of the global carbon cycle, including both its biophysical and human dimensions together with the interactions and feedbacks between them. A project of the Earth System Science Partnership of the International Geosphere Biosphere Programme (IGBP), World Climate Research Programme (WCRP), and the International Human Dimensions Programme (IHDP)
- Mystery of the Missing Carbon - Discusses the BOREAS research program, which investigated the "missing carbon" problem in global carbon cycle studies.
- The BOREAS Project - The Boreal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study (BOREAS) is a large-scale international interdisciplinary experiment in the northern boreal forests of Canada. Its goal was to improve our understanding of the boreal forests - how they interact with the atmosphere, how much CO2 they can store, and how climate change will affect them.
- United States Trace Gas Network - The TRAGNET network is meant to accomplish the following two goals: 1. Document contemporary fluxes of CO2, CH4 and N2O between regionally important ecosystems and the atmosphere and 2. Determine the factors controlling these fluxes and improve our ability to predict future fluxes in response to ecosystem and climate change.
- US Carbon Cycle Science Program - An interagency partnership to provide critical unbiased scientific information on the fate of carbon dioxide in the environment to contribute to the ongoing public dialogue.
- Virid.us - Provides a place where professionals share expertise, challenges and knowledge on environmental and sustainability responsibilities at work. Includes forums, blogs, information on membership and an FAQ.
