Dozens of protesters demonstrated outside the annual meetings of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank in Washington D.C. on Thursday, expressing opposition to funding of fossil fuels and demanding urgent action to tackle climate change.
Some of the activists gathered on bicycles and called for support for nations affected by climate change.
They carried posters that said "World Bank of climate chaos", "stop funding fossil fuel," "People over profit" and "actions speak louder than words."
