Protestors march for climate action in Rome amid G-20 summit

Protesters marched in Rome on Saturday amid the Group of 20 (G-20) summit, demanding action on climate change and equal distribution of COVID-19 vaccines.

Footage captured by Reuters showed large groups of young people holding signs addressing the G-20 summit, a gathering of 20 of the largest economies in the world at the Eternal City.

The demonstrators could also be heard chanting, dancing and singing in protest of both causes.

"We are holding this protest for environmental and social issues and against the G20, which continues undaunted on a path that has almost led us to social and ecological failure," protester Edoardo Mentrasti said, Reuters reported.
