KATOWICE, Poland — Several thousand people gathered Saturday amid a heavy police presence in southern Poland for a “March for Climate” to encourage negotiators at climate talks to set ambitious goals.
Activists from around the world gathered in the main square of the city of Katowice where delegates from almost 200 countries are holding a two-week meeting on curbing climate change.
Some of them were dressed as polar bears and orangutans, animals that are facing extinction from man-made global warming and deforestation.
