Lets fight Global Warming

More than 600 people have been arrested at a demonstration against climate change in Copenhagen today.

What started as a peaceful demonstration calling for action on climate change, descended into rioting as hundreds of masked youths threw bricks and smashed windows in the Danish capital.

The scenes were in stark contrast to the rest of the colourful demonstration, which had progressed peacefully.
