Climate protesters hold parliament sit-in
About 200 climate change activists have been dragged from Parliament House after staging a sit-in urging the Turnbull government to take stronger action.
As global talks in Paris continue, protesters occupied the marble foyer before being asked to leave.
When they decided to stay, security officers removed them.
They chanted slogans and held a sign saying "Put people ahead of polluters".
Greens leader Richard Di Natale along with MPs Adam Bandt, Scott Ludlam, Lee Rhiannon and Janet Rice joined the protesters.
Mr Bandt said the protest was a reflection of a national mood for change on climate change action.
"People here in parliament today have said we're running out of time," he told AAP.
"People in Australia feel so strongly about this and want the parliament to take the kind of action on climate change the science demands."
