Monckton to UN: 'In the 16 years we have been coming to these conferences, there has been no global warming'
Calls to 'deport Monckton' from UN conference in Qatar
Calls to 'deport Monckton' from UN conference in Qatar
After the news
conference, and as diplomats gathered for the climate conference
president's assessment of how close countries are to agreement, Monckton
quietly slipped into the seat reserved for the delegation of Myanmar
and clicked the button to speak.
"In the 16 years
we have been coming to these conferences, there has been no global
warming," Monckton said as confused murmurs filled the hall and then
turned into a chorus of boos.
The stunt
infuriated negotiators and activists here who gather every year to
address what they believe is one of the world's top threats, the steady
rise of man-made global warming.
As Monckton was
escorted from the hall and security officers stripped him of his U.N.
credentials, several people noted that just a few hours earlier a group
of young activists had been thrown out of the convention center and
deported. Their crime: unfurling an unauthorized banner calling for the
Qatari hosts to lead the negotiations to a strong conclusion.
By late today, several activists attending the conference had posted calls to "deport Monckton" on their Twitter feeds.
