EU Climate Action Lost at Sea
Campaigners lying on the ground were spelling out SOS while other volunteers, wearing life vests and blowing whistles, were holding signs that spell out “CLIMATE SOS” around a life raft, all in front of the European Commission sign. Other people inside the life raft were holding signs for help in various languages – English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Polish, Italian and Greek.
