"Environment activists piled thousands of dead fish at the foot of Berlin's biggest tourist attraction, the Brandenburg Gate, Tuesday in a demonstration against over-fishing and pollution in the North Sea... visitors to the famous neo-classical landmark were greeted by the smell of 11,000 rotting fish displayed on a 100 meter long table under banners bearing the slogan 'Don't waste life!' ... The dead fish on display - some 95% of the catch, including endangered species of octopus and sea urchin - were those that commercial crews would normally throw back overboard for failing to meet traders' criteria.
