Eric Worrall writes: The imminent climate summit in New York is rapidly turning into an utter embarrassment for President Obama and UN Secretary General Bank Ki-Moon, in addition to becoming a bit of a punishment round for national deputy leaders.
Aussie PM Tony Abbott today defended his decision not to hop on an earlier flight to America, so he could attend the UN climate conference in New York, because he has more important matters to attend to, such as running the country.
Chinese President Xi Jinping and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi have also indicated they likely won’t attend the summit.

Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper has indicated he will not be attending. https://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/canada-politics/stephen-harper-to-skip-un-climate-summit-183946998.html
Even Angela Merkel, President of über green Germany, will not be attending the UN climate summit. http://notrickszone.com/2014/05/26/merkel-snubs-new-york-ban-ki-moon-climate-conference-burying-the-global-climate-agreement/
Of course, things would probably have been totally different, if the summit organisers had guaranteed that attendees would definitely not have to sit through any more boring climate presentations by former Vice President Al Gore.
Hahahahahahahaha
No carbon tax fear speeches this day.
anything more embarassing, pathetic than an image of obama at podium pontificatingabout him reversing the oceans rise to an empty room. I’d argue no, there isn’t
because it hasnt shown its face in 20 years. man caused global warming or climate change is a hoax. the sheep stay sheep, the rest of us are well aware. kudos to those not attending.
And since global warming and climate change are both hoaxes based on absolutely zero science, I applaud these leaders for doing what Obama should be doing -Running the GD country instead of wasting time and money on this BS.
Nooooooooooo…. Don’t let Obama run the country anymore. Please let him play golf… we’re better off that way. 🙂
With major increase of ice in both Antartica and the Artic, the decrease in the ozone hole, and with the common knowledge that carbon dioxide is needed for plant growth and is not a pollutant, the global elitists who have been pushing the climate change scam do not have a leg to stand on. Their policies are degrading everyone’s economies and lowering the world’s standard of living, especially in the western countries. The third world countries and the communist countries are not participating in this economic suicide. I wonder if the Ohio state University discovery that coal energy can be extracted without burning, has been stopped by Obama and his minions. Climate Change enthusiasts have stopped major improvements in energy productions for the sake of their radical false beliefs. It is almost like a religious cult with that bunch.
Man-made Global Warming is a false alarm, and so is President Obama.
But they will miss Leo’s film.

Some people will say anything if you pay them enough. *cough*
The only way to defeat a carbon monster is to burn it,
What is it with climate change alarmists and goatees?
Is DiCaprio hoping to play Michael Mann in some movie?
I’m a Carbon Monste, I’m a Carbon Monster, I also am a Carbon Monster. Think Spartucus.
If nobody shows up does that mean that Obama and Mon Key Moon get to do whatever they want?
So these national leaders are not going to worship at the alter of the new religion global warming? How dare they – especially when the Dear Leader “the Bamster” is calling. Heretics! I think it is high time for a pogrom.
The democratic party is a religion. Some of them have 2 religions, one for when the vote, another for when they die!
Good for Abbott and the others to see that the house is burning down and noes not the time to fix the television.
The hoax is unraveling! Hahaha…ad infinitum!
Climate change. Just another of Barack’s distractions that create confusion. His real agenga is 1) disinformation, 2) disorientation, 3) demoralization 4)destablization, 5) goverenment-created “crisis”, 6) government “solution” to the crisis, 7) normalization to the new tyranny. He has the following going on now: 1) ISIS, 2) ebola crisis–sending soldiers, 3) climate change, 4) shutting down lead mines to drive up cost of ammunition for citizens, 5) XL pipeline prohibition, and many others.
I’m sure he’ll attract a few Dead Heads and leftover Apple Conference members ! America’s biggest Joke since Carter. Dumbo the incompetent !
staying home is a way to battle climate change instead of emitting loads of carbon into the air via all of their private jets and entourages, the leaders are making a green political statement and keeping their jets grounded.
nah, i’m only joking. lol. the truth is no one can stand obama.
LOL
The word is that, between the Kool menthols and the greazy cheezburgers, Barry’s breath smells like an outhouse in August. Even Barry’s beard, The First Middle Linebacker, said her nickname for him is “stinky.”

Peter…I hate that you have been snookered….but you HAVE. Wake up, leave Camp Chicken Little, and come hang with the fellow Deniers. We may not be pretty….we may not tell each other how very smart we are….but we happen to be correct.
Petey is still a quite happy guy, dontchaknow. After all he did do a study on laughing gas…..
Why didn’t they show up? Probably because they know that man-made global climate change is a pseudo-religion and a political effort to garner money for those who profit from their fear mongering.
I do like Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbot’s reason he didn’t attend, “because he has more important matters to attend to, such as running the country.”
Would it be that our own president would make such a sensible comment? No, that’s not possible, like the bumper sticker, his personal mantra is, “I’d rather be playing golf.”
Obama is political poison. If I were a politician, I’d stay away.
Doesn’t Obama have a more important golf game somewhere? He could go to Africa and embrace Ebola patients to show his incredible leadership skills that he has been hiding for six years. Anything is better than another event to destroy capitalism with Obama waving the flag. His other programs are working just fine.
2 funny. The Boy Wonder has none of the grown-ups showing to his pajama party.
This will allow Obama to listen to himself babble about how wonderful he thinks he is.
what could be more exciting than a two hour grandstand ultimatum from Al Gore followed by Bill Gates 1 hour lectern sermon followed by three hours of grave warnings from Elton John and a cameo concert by a depressed looking Paul McCartney.
No, rho1953, the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere is 0.04%, not 0.0004%.
Just goes to show that most world leaders aren’t as stupid as obummer is!
Most of the people who look at the global temp data understand that there was a big drop in the 1970s, a rebound up (mostly rebound from the drop) in the late 1980s and 90s, a peak in 1998, and flatfish declining temps since then. Normal cyclicity. And they understand that a lot of people stand to make a lot of money and power hyping the false concept of anthropogenic global warming. World leaders have used the concept when useful politically but none of them are going to waste their own time attending to this farce. And given the fact that everyone paying attention understands by now what an inept lightweight Obama is, nobody will feel compelled to come to support him.
Lol! The article fails to mention that all attendees will get three free rounds of golf in the Hamptons with the president.
