Australians bury heads in sand to mock government climate stance

Hundreds of Australian climate change activists hold unusual protest on famed beach

More than 400 protesters stuck their heads in the sand on Sydney's Bondi Beach on Thursday,
The stunt was meant to mock the Australian government's reluctance to put climate change on the
agenda of this weekend's G20 summit, being held in the country.
