UK climate activists target Darwin's grave with chalk

Climate activists target Charles Darwin's grave with chalk paint, in the latest controversial disruptive action by protesters over the UK government's environmental policies.

Two Just Stop Oil (JSO) supporters are seen spray-painting with chalk "1.5 is dead" on the 19th-century biologist's grave in Westminster Abbey in central London, a reference to the internationally agreed target upper limit for global warming, which the world breached in 2024.
