Police have given climate change protesters who are blockading Parliament House in Canberra 15 minutes to move away from the building's entrance .. but some are refusing to go.
Security guards have shut the building's front entrance .. and the number of police there is gradually increasing.
Family First senator STEVE FIELDING .. a known climate change sceptic .. attempted to address the crowd but was laughed down.
The group's released a statement saying they've come from across Australia to call on Prime Minister KEVIN RUDD to secure a strong .. legally binding treaty at next month's global climate talks in Copenhagen.
