Climate Activists Dye Landmark Fountains Black in Rome and Spain
Last Generation, an anti-climate change organization, turned the Baroque-style Fountain of the Boat in Rome black with a vegetable-based carbon liquid in a protest that they said symbolized an "end of the world" scenario. The group has been carrying out peaceful but disruptive protests in Italy since last year, urging politicians to prioritize climate change. The protests are part of a series of actions across Europe to focus attention on climate change.
