Two climate activists have glued themselves to the frames of two famous paintings by Spanish master Francisco de Goya at the Prado Museum in Madrid. On the wall between the paintings "The Naked Maja" and "The Clothed Maja" they wrote "1.5 C", as can be seen on video images.

The Paris climate agreement of 2015 stipulates the goal of stopping global warming at 1.5 degrees if possible and thus preventing the worst consequences of climate change. However, it is now considered likely that the climate will warm up much faster.

The two young people wore shirts with "Futuro Vegetal" (Plant Future) printed on them. According to their own statements, this group is fighting the climate crisis by advocating agriculture with only plant products.

In Germany and other European countries, too, activists stuck to paintings before the 27th World Climate Conference, which began in Egypt on Sunday, or sprayed them with food, such as in the Barberini Museum in Potsdam, where mashed potatoes were thrown at a Monet painting. None of the paintings were damaged because they were protected by glass.
