A group of climate activists with oil cans on their heads poured oil outside the United Nations International Maritime Organization (IMO) headquarters in London on November 22.

Footage shows several members of Ocean Rebellion with oil cans on their heads pretending to vomit oil onto the ground.

Activists also threw fake money into the air with a banner reading "spill truth not oil" in the background.

Ocean Rebellion were calling on the IMO to agree to a pathway for mandatory carbon reductions by 2030.

Climate activists from Ocean Rebellion dressed up as 'oily heads' and vomited dirty 'oil' on the ground today outside the London headquarters of the United Nations International Maritime Organization (IMO).

The activists from the Extinction Rebellion splinter group were calling on the IMO to agree on a pathway for mandatory carbon reductions by 2030. The group said that if this does not happen shipping will account for roughly 15% of global emissions by 2030 and will have long since exhausted its share of the carbon budget to stay within 1.5 degrees of warming as set by the 2015 Paris CoP21 agreement.

Activists also threw fake money in the air and wore masks depicting IMO Secretary General Kitack Lim and Cook Islands rep Captain Ian Finley as they greeted delegates arriving for the IMO's 77th Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) meeting which is discussing shipping industry greenhouse gas emissions . Ocean Rebellion's team of 'dirty scrubbers' then came on the scene to "greenwash away" all the dirty mess so that IMO delegates could finally get on with the final day of their week-long meeting undisturbed.
