Greenpeace activists dressed as “Rio +20 Express” deliverymen arrive at the Brazilian embassy in Washington, D.C. to deliver a Weeping Ficus.
The activists were part of a worldwide effort which saw similar activities take place around the world, including Paris, Rome, Berlin, Mexico City and Washington DC. These global activities are aimed to remind Brazil’s President Dilma Rousseff that almost 80 per cent of Brazilians want the Amazon protected.
