Hundreds of environmental protesters took to the seaside in Cornwall on  Saturday morning in a bid to draw the attention of world leaders and the international media outlets that have descended on southwest England for the G7 summit.

Some protesters paddled out to sea, while others sunbathed on the beach wearing masks of leaders' faces.

Leaders from Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the U.K. and the United States are meeting near the town of St. Ives for talks focusing on the pandemic and climate change.
