Lebanese environmental activists wear masks depicting Lebanon's Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri (R) as well as Lebanese Christian opposition leader and head of the Free Patriotic Movement Michel Aoun (L), during an act to mimic the politicians talking, in Beirut November 12, 2009. The project was organized by the League of Independent Activists (IndyACT) and it calls on the new government to place more priority on the creation of policies dealing with climate change. The Arabic characters read, "Is climate change in the government statement?". REUTERS/Hussam Shbaro (LEBANON ENVIRONMENT POLITICS CONFLICT)
