Going on right now, if you want to watch it live as the panel of primarily big time Warmists blathers on about evil fossil fueled travel after taking fossil fueled travel to D.C.
Vitter: Senate climate hearing not called "Global Warming: It's Happening" because there's been no warming in past 15 years.

Steven is live-tweeting the hearing, so follow him.
(Daily Caller) Senate Republicans have released a report undercutting catastrophic predictions made about global warming ahead of a hearing planned by Democrats on the issue.
“Over nearly four decades, numerous predictions have had adequate time to come to fruition, providing an opportunity to analyze and compare them to today’s statistics,†reads the report from Republicans on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee.
The report examines the 15-year break from global warming, sea level rises, extreme weather, and the unilateral regulations proposed by the Obama administration.
Too much to excerpt, read the whole article. And then tweet Barbara Boxer and ask if she plans to walk or ride a bike back to California.
Average global temperature history since 1975 is like a hill. We went up the hill from 1975 to 2001 where the average global temperature trend reached a plateau (per the average of the five government agencies that publicly report average global temperature anomalies). The average global temperature trend since 2001 has been flat to slightly declining but is on the plateau at the top of the hill. Claiming that the hill is highest at its top is not very profound. The temperature trend has started to decline but the decline will be slow; about 0.1 K per decade for the planet, approximately twice that fast for land areas.
GW ended before 2001. http://endofgw.blogspot.com/
