Maldives government highlights the impact of climate change... by meeting underwater:
Politicians from the Indian Ocean island nation donned scuba gear this morning to send a message to world leaders ahead of December's UN climate change conference in Copenhagen.
The nation's president Mohammed Nasheed has voiced fears the archipelago will be swamped by raising sea levels unless action is taken to reduce carbon emissions.
The 30-minute cabinet meeting held six metres below sea-level was intended to show what the future could hold for the Maldives.
