No one paid attention. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">He could have given the same speech [in] 2005 ,2010, 2015. In fact, he did give the same speech, and he was reduced. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">The only news Al Gore got out, I think you know, is the answer. Howard Lutnik, the Commerce Secretary. He [Al Gore] was reduced to booing a speaker at the World Economic Forum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Al Gore\u2019s entire media clip. So, this event was him booing a Trump administration speaker at the World Economic Forum in Davos. That\u2019s how low the mighty have fallen, of course. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">And I mentioned at COP 30 he was calling Bill Gates silly and being bullied by Donald Trump\u2026I never thought Bill Gates would be attacked by Al Gore. So that\u2019s what this meeting was like. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">They did have a climate hub, but it was very just tiny, sort of [an] afterthought. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">There were other things. I think it was down two thirds any climate panels or discussion titles with the word title climate or net zero in it.\u201d \u2014 Marc Morano, publisher of ClimateDepot.com<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">In Episode 539 of District of Conservation, Gabriella welcomes ClimateDepot editor Marc Morano to recap his trip to the recent World Economic Forum conference in Davos, Switzerland. The mood was different this year, as climate alarmism takes a backseat at the annual confab.
