Hundreds of protesters from climate activist group Extinction Rebellion blocked a busy intersection on Monday near the temporary home of the Netherlands' parliament, marking the start of a week of protests the group plans in The Hague before a U.N. climate conference that opens on October 31.
The demonstration started when protesters wheeled a yellow boat emblazoned with the Dutch words meaning “citizens decide” into the middle the road. Other activists walked to another nearby intersection and began sitting or lying down in the road as police looked on.
