Environmental activists operating in France staged a surprise protest on the 27th (local time) by climbing the pyramid of the Louvre Museum, a tourist attraction in Paris, and painting it orange.
According to a French media outlet, 12 activists from an environmental group called "The Last Innovation" sprayed orange paint on the Louvre Museum pyramid that morning. One of them climbed directly onto the pyramid and poured paint.
They were immediately stopped and chased away by security personnel.
The group argued that the government needs to come up with more innovative measures to improve the building's energy efficiency.
