STRASBOURG, France (Reuters) - France has put 24 green activists under house arrest ahead of the United Nations climate talks, using emergency laws put in place following the Paris shootings, Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said on Saturday.

Cazeneuve said the activists were suspected of planning violent protests at the talks which kick off on Sunday, a day ahead of the opening ceremony, and run until Dec. 11.

It is Greenpeace, a notorious terrorist group.

Greenpeace might cause some problems, but highly unlikely to blow people up like some other group in France.  ( Yes, I'm referring to those damn Amish, again.)

If gloBULL warming is the most dangerous issue of our time why are they worried about things like terror attacks?

It is time to crush leftists and ecoterrorists along with ISIS and Jihadists.

Global warming summit will produce '300,000 TONS of C02' as 50,000 people travel to Paris from across the world for two-week conference
According to calculations by Wired and Steven Stoft of climateParis.org, the average round trip per attendee will be around 9,000 miles.
Taking the fuel consumption of a Boeing 747 – around 16.5 miles per gallon – which the website describes as a 'happy medium between private jets and bullet trains', it is estimated around 27 million gallons of fuel will be used by travellers attending the conference.


This figure was arrived at by multiplying the number of attendees by the around round trip mileage to get 450million miles then multiplying that by 16.5miles per gallon.
With each gallon of fuel producing around 21 pounds of carbon dioxide, the total released by planes flying to and from Paris is thought to be about 575million pounds (290,000 tons), according to rough calculations.

yeah, you ****ing hypocrites really care about the environment.  Have you ever heard of video conferencing?  Or how about plane-pooling?  I'm sure the prime minister of Canada and the president of mexico could have hopped a ride in AF One to save on fuel and pollutants.
Biden is an illegitimate President.  Change my mind.
