It’s been a hectic couple of days of travel but we made it!
My videographer and I are on the ground reporting from the 24th annual UN Climate Change Conference in Katowice, Poland.
The Canadian government asked the United Nations to ban us from reporting inside the conference and the United Nations has complied with my own government’s demands to censor me as the only skeptical journalist at the event.
But we came anyway.
A ban has never stopped me before and it isn't going to stop me now. We are going to bring you all the sights and sounds of Katowice that the mainstream media, the United Nations and the Canadian government doesn’t want you to see.
Did you that the Spodek Stadium - the place where the conference is being held - is atop a reclaimed coal mine? This part of Poland is Eastern Europe’s West Virginia, the heart of coal country with mines in every direction.
Was it a slap in the face to coal miners to hold this anti-coal conference here? Or was it a strong message from Poland to the United Nations that coal is here to stay?
We’re going to try to answers those questions this week.

I wonder.
