Climate protesters in Washington, D.C.<\/a> were handcuffed on Thursday after they dragged paint on a glass cover protecting an art sculpture.<\/p>\n

The incident happened at the National Gallery of Art by the activism group Declare Emergency in an attempt to bring attention to climate change, according to the Washington Post.<\/p>\n

After two people from the group smeared their hands across the glass covering of Edgar Degas\u2019s “Little Dancer Aged Fourteen,” they were removed by police in handcuffs.<\/p>\n

One of the individuals taken into custody wasn’t issued any criminal charges but is banned from the museum for life, according to a tweet from the group.<\/p>\n

The group tweeted that they wanted to send a message about climate change<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Around 11 am today two parents who are terrified about their children\u2019s futures (as well as all children) made a statement at the National Gallery in DC. Climate change will cause famine, floods, droughts and destruction unless we act now,” Declare Emergency tweeted.<\/p>\n

In response to criticism on Twitter, the group tweeted that it’s a “complete moral failure of our government<\/a> to protect its own citizens.”<\/p>\n

Tuesday’s climate protest is hardly the first time that an activism group has defaced artwork in attempts to bring attention to their cause.<\/p>\n

In March, German climate activists defaced a work of art near the country’s parliament.<\/p>\n

Members of The Last Generation appeared to have thrown black liquid over glass plates which displayed 19 articles of the German Constitution.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the German group<\/a> said that its government wasn’t protecting citizens’ “fundamental rights” because of the country’s use of fossil fuels.<\/p>\n

Parliament Speaker B\u00e4rbel Bas harshly criticized the protest.<\/p>\n

“Those are the fundamental rights on which the demonstrators from Last Generation themselves base the justification for their actions,” Bas said in a statement. “I can only hope that the glass plates of the artwork were not permanently damaged.”<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital reached out to Declare Emergency for comment.<\/p>\n
