Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore is expected to tell a Senate panel on Wednesday that the United States needs to provide leadership on the world stage in tackling climate change, a Senate aide said.
With Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman John Kerry focusing a hearing on climate change, Gore is scheduled to tell the panel about the significance of global warming, and new science emerging in the field across the world.
Gore is also expected to stress steps the United States and the international community can take leading up to the negotiations on climate change in Denmark at the end of the year, Frederick Jones, spokesman for Kerry, D-Massachusetts, told CNN Tuesday.
The hearing comes amid a new U.S. commitment to the issue of climate change under the Obama administration.
On Monday, U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton named former Clinton administration climate negotiator Todd Stern a special envoy for climate change and President Obama directed the Department of Transportation to being implement fuel efficiency standards approved last year, but not employed by the Bush administration.

“Being a big doofus and a political celebrity does not qualify him to speak on this topic.”
‘Why not, it seems to work so well for so many other celebs.... ‘
We should perhaps consider the ‘audience’... (remember Show & Tell in elementary school?)
I hope some of the Republican Senators have educated themselves on some of the contrary information so they can ask intelligent questions.
Appearing before the Senate? Now people will take him SUPER serial!
