Members of the Maldives' Cabinet donned scuba gear and used hand signals on Saturday at an underwater meeting staged to highlight the threat of global warming to the lowest-lying nation on earth.
President Mohammed Nasheed and 13 other government officials submerged and took their seats at a table on the sea floor- 6 meters below the surface of a lagoon off Girifushi, an island usually used for military training.
The underwater meeting was held ahead of a major UN climate change conference in December in Copenhagen.
