CLIMATE Commissioner Tim Flannery was drowned out by an interjector at a public forum last night after predicting Sydney's west faced a future of severe heatwaves, violence and death by rising temperatures.
The protester, dressed in a penguin suit, went into the Parramatta RSL auditorium and called Professor Flannery a "hoax".The protester drew clapping and booing before he was escorted out by security staff, as another interjector called out: "I can't believe that you people are listening to this waffle."
