London, UK. 17 August, 2026. Activists from 'Scientists On Survival' spray fire extinguishers at the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ), calling on government to listen to and act on climate science. The group say scientists have repeatedly warned that new oil and gas extraction means more fires, extreme weather, food shortages and deaths. They called on DESNZ and PM Andy Burnham not to approve the controversial Rosebank and Jackdaw oil and gas fields. The protest took place on the last day of a public consultation on Rosebank. © Ron Fassbender
