Beyond the serried ranks of Met Police rozzers, outside the hotel in Grosvenor Square, scores of concerned citizens picnic, party and protest against this dire threat to provoke even worse catastrophic climate change, and against the continued destruction of the ever-dwindling habitat of our cousin great apes, the orangutans.
