Pete--
The question crossed my mind until I recalled that they're in Copenhagen--the protesters did their planning meetings while blazed.
The spontaneous demonstrations are being conducted by those returning late from runs for brownies and nacho cheese Doritos or just waking up with that feeling they were supposed to be elsewhere for reasons they can't quite remember.
(I'm sure that Copenhagen's reputation for a certain kind of friendliness towards a specific green industry had nothing to do with its selection to host this prestigious historical event.)
The article does present an interesting perspective.

Mette Hermansen, 27, studying to train teachers, and a member of the International Socialists of Denmark, said, “In the Bella Center they are not discussing solutions to climate change. They are discussing how rich countries can continue emitting and how to sell that to the public. We are not preventing leaders from making solutions but encouraging them to make solutions.”
