A group of climate activists in Italy have poured what they described as “a charcoal-based black liquid” into the water of Rome’s famous Fontana dei Quattro Fiumi – to “sound the alarm about the black future that awaits humanity.” “Our future is as black as this water,” the group called Ultima Generazione, or Last Generation, said on their website. “Without water, there is no life and with rising temperatures, we are exposed to drought on the one hand and floods on the other,” they added.
“It is absurd that this gesture should shock you when we are experiencing a drought emergency that is putting agriculture, energy production in crisis,” the group said of its protest then. Members of the group were arrested by police and are facing charges of defacing a public monument. ‘Iconic’ work of art Located in the famed Piazza Navona square in Rome, the Fiumi Fountain was designed by Italian sculptor Gian Lorenzo Bernini in 1651.
