A webcast of an all-star marathon event about climate change and hosted by Al Gore was suspended mid-broadcast after the deadly attacks in the French capital Friday night.
Gore's '24 Hours of Reality and Live Earth' webcast launched from the foot of the Eiffel Tower just hours before the capital was rocked by horrifying attacks that killed more than 150 people on Friday.
A reported 118 people were killed during a rock concert at the Bataclan theatre, with more murdered at a restaurant and outside the State de France sports stadium.
'Out of solidarity with the French people and the City of Paris, we have decided to suspend our broadcast of 24 Hours of Reality and Live Earth, a read a statement on the concert's website.
'Our thoughts are with all who have been affected and the entire nation of France. We send our condolences to the families of those who have been killed or injured.'
Gore was hosting the 24-hour live webcast to raise awareness about global warming weeks before world leaders gather for the COP 21 Paris Climate summit on November 30.

HOW DARE they interfere with his bringing attention to the most serious threat to humanity?
Poor Al....
Maybe stopping Jihad is more important than stopping CO2 emissions.
One of the global warming conferences got called off because of a blizzard. Gore can’t even buy a break.
He is deathly afraid his cameras will capture some rabid Muslim murdering innocent Infidels. Bad press for his fake carbon credit scheme.
Here’s the lesson to be learned. If Al Gore schedules ANYTHING even remotely high profile ANYWHERE... make sure you’re out of town.
It only figures since they are both on the same side.
Pray America wakes
You would have thought that making $100M in a few years after leaving the white house would be enough.
Most politicians have an ego and a drive that is relentless and uncaring. Power, money, control and excess. IIRC, ALGORE tried to screw some hotel masseuse in between cheeseburgers.
It continues to amaze and disgust me that people listen to this obese dishonest anti-science oaf.
An opportunity missed...
Just a bit more reality than they were counting on
He should have been screaming that global warming caused those shootings.
Missed it by that much (Maxwell Smart)
He is a joke.
Algore isn’t going to let no Islamoterrorist massacre stop his “Pimpin’ For Bucks” marathon. He’s got a lot of bills to pay.
Was Al (who served in Vietnam) Gore wearing brown trousers to commemorate the attack?
How will he get back to his lush, $9M estate in CA?
In a dirty-fossil-fuel-burning luxury charter jet.....or by kayak?
How ya bettin'?

What are the five people who were listening to this do today?
Ironic that that an event promoting “Climate Change” (formerly “Global Warming” until it was discredited), the foremost threat we face according to the 0bomb,was interrupted by an attack by ISIS which we have under control (also according to the 0bomb).
