French police clash with climate change protesters in Paris Sunday Nov 29,2015

 Activists fight with policemen during a protest ahead of the 2015 Paris Climate Conference, in Paris on Sunday. Over 140 world leaders are gathering around Paris for high-stake climate talks that start on Monday, and activists are holding marches and protests around the world urging them to reach a strong agreement to slow global warming.
French riot police fired tear gas at climate change protesters at the Place de la Republique in central Paris on Sunday Nov 29,2015, near where climate change activists had earlier formed a human chain.
 
About two hundred protesters, some wearing masks, fought with police on a street leading to the square, which has become a gathering place for Parisians since the attacks in the capital on November 13 that killed 130 people.
 
Police fired gas at some demonstrators as they tried to reach the square and used tear gas to disperse others. Demonstrators carried banners calling for the defence of the climate and democracy
