Climate change activists are protesting outside the National Park during the annual Congressional Baseball Game in Washington, D.C., USA, on June 12, 2024. The game, which raises money for local charities in the D.C. area, is featuring Democrats and Republicans from the House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate. Climate change protesters are chanting while holding signs that say "Stop playing games with our future," and they are wearing shirts that say "End Fossil Fuels" before entering the field. At least eight climate protesters are being arrested by police after storming the field during the game. The Congressional Baseball Game for Charity is an annual baseball game played each summer by members of the United States Congress.
