Whitehouse, colleagues discuss global warming

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse and nine other senators this afternoon are discussing their recent trip to Greenland to study global warming.

The senators visited the Kangia Ice Fjord near Illulissat on Saturday, and toured iceberg-filled Disko Bay by boat on Sunday.

The press conference started about 1 p.m.

U.S. Sens. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., chairman of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, and Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., ranking member of the Subcommittee on Transportation and Infrastructure, led the weekend trip.
