Al Gore's Senate climate crisis testimony

The U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee has posted the testimony (prepared statement) of former Vice President Al Gore at a hearing on climate change entitled "Addressing Global Climate Change: The Road to Copenhagen." There was a lot of Q&A and discussion (and pictures) that followed that is not in the prepared statement. Ranking Member Senator Lugar presented a prepared opening statement, but committee Chairman Kerry did not have a prepared opening statement.

I have not read through all of this in detail yet, but there does not appear to be much of anything new, but simply people saying we need to get back on the pre-Bush track and pick up the pace and show some true global leadership.
