"The messenger"



An artwork called "The messenger" is posted right outside the entrance to the Bella Center in Copenhagen, Denmark. The sculpture is part of the project SevenMeters, using red blinking LEDs to symbolise that the world is heading towards a climatic disaster.

African protest in the Bella Center, in Copenhagen


A protest erupts at the climate talks in Copenhagen after leaked documents reveal plans to sideline the interests of developing countries.

African delegates from PACJA (Pan African Climate Justice Alliance) swarmed into the main hall at the BC, shouting "two degrees to suicide" and "we will survive". The protesters were led by Mr. Augustine Nyamsi of PACJA.
