underwater cabinet meeting

The Maldives held an underwater cabinet meeting to address rising sea levels due to global warming.

Nasheed and his deputy, Mohamed Waheed, and a dozen ministers sat behind tables arranged in a horseshoe at a depth of six metres (20 feet) and approved a resolution urging global action to cut carbon emissions.

Tropical reef fish swam among the ministers and the nation’s red and green flag with white crescent moon was planted in the seabed behind Nasheed.

I can’t believe no one has commented on this.* I want to emigrate.
