http://www.globalchange.gov is the US government's Global Change Research Program's platform and information outlet for "Integrating federal research on climate and global change."

This link is to the whitehouse.org blog page about the latest USGCRP report video, which I haven't watched yet, but plan to ASAP.

Personally, I feel like the Obama administration is doing a good job supporting and working on the issues surrounding climate change, even to the point of admitting that adaptational responses are already needed. The new Globalchange website actually makes me feel like we are on top of this issue. Not that we've got it licked, but it's great to see the focus and integration that's going on across the government and world.
