Greta Thunberg banned from Venice after dyeing canal green

Greta Thunberg has been banned from Venice after she and Extinction Rebellion activists dyed the Grand Canal green.

The 22-year-old climate campaigner has been issued with a €150 (£132) fine and a 48-hour ban on entering the city after a series of stunts over the weekend. A group of 35 other activists were handed the same fine and ban.

The climate activists dumped an environmentally harmless dye into the Grand Canal in a protest that coincided with the end of the Cop30 United Nations climate conference in Brazil.
