A mother in Australia posted on Saturday morning on her son's Facebook page, "Wish you don't have to go there, too any radicals." Her son in New Zealand happens to be one of the youth delegates to the 2015 Climate Change Conference in Paris from Nov. 30 to Dec. 11.
The Friday night terrorist attack places a question mark on the much-anticipated climate change conference, primarily on the safety of delegates. Latest report place the death count at 120 people and the attack sites to six.
The incident led French President Francois Hollande to declare a national state of emergency and order the closure of borders to prevent the terrorists, suspected to be linked to the Islamic State in the aftermath of the U.S.-led drone attack the day before believed to have killed Jihadi John.
Those responsible for the deaths, though are believed to be dead, reports Globe & Mail.
In Twitter, netizens are asking questions and posting their comments on the likely impact of the Paris terror attack on the conference.
Menchu Macapagal asked, "I wonder how this attack will impact that?"
Watts Up With That's question is if the incident would made U.S. President Barack Obama rethink his priority if climate change is indeed the biggest threat to the planet, implying it possibly is the Islamic State or terror attacks.
Obama described the attack as "an outrageous attempt to terrorize civilians."
Blaze Orange tweets, "Bets are this attack will be blamed on global warming."
While it is too early to expect any response from organizers of the Climate Change Conference at this point as France hunts for the terrorists responsible for the carnage, if any are still alive, at least one event has been cancelled in the wake of the Friday incident.
The band U2 cancelled on Saturday their concert that was supposed to be broadcast live by HBO, reports LA Times. The band said in a statement, "We watched in disbelief and shock at the unfolding events in Paris and our hearts go to all the victims and their families across the city tonight.
Majority of the victims were concert-goers who just attended the Eagles of Death Metal concert held at Bataclan theater.
