A climate change denial event in Paris, organized jointly by two US groups, the coal-funded Heartland Institute and The Committee For A Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT), held to coincide with the UN climate COP21 talks, quietly flopped Monday when hardly an

Prove that that pic is from the event talked about in the OP.
Ah. There's the rub. How did your reporter know how many people actually attended the meeting since the reporter admits not attending the meeting?

No, it isn't.
And a consensus of people who hide their data and who refuse to publish their methodologies is not science, either.
