"President Obama" vowed yesterday in Bangkok to end the climate crisis by committing the United States to emissions reductions at the upcoming Copenhagen Climate Summit in December. Not!
In a publicity stunt outside the US embassy in Bangkok, Barack Obama lookalike Ilham Anas,34, from Indonesia,said all the things Greenpeace, an environmental campaign group, wishes the real President Obama would say.
"I will attend the Copenhagen Climate Summit," said the famed "Faux-bama.""I will ensure an ambitious, fair and binding global climate treaty. I will make funds available for climate mitigation and adaptation, starting with funds to protect the remaining forests."
Mr Anas's speech was part of Greenpeace's effort to call world leaders'attention to climate change prior to a series of meetings on the issue, including Mr Obama's address to the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday,and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change meeting in Copenhagen in December.
