The four Greenpeace activists who made a peaceful non violent protest have been released after spending 20 days in prison.

They impersonated world leaders and gate crashed a heads of state dinner at the climate talks in Copenhagen. Two of the activists dressed in black tie and posed as representatives of an imaginary country called Mother Earth. When walking along the red carpet just behind Hilary Clinton (US secretary of state) they unfurled banners saying: "Politicians talk, leaders act".

Have a look at this short film from Greenpeace which tells their story.
