Greenpeace activists in London floated a figurine of Mary Poppins wearing a face mask in front of the Houses of Parliament on Friday to protest London breaching its 2017 air pollution limit in only five days.
The local law stipulates hourly levels of toxic nitrogen dioxide must not exceed 200 micrograms per cubic meter but the limit was broken on Thursday, just five days into the new year.
The Disney classic “Mary Poppins” came out in cinemas in 1964.
In the movie, nanny Mary Poppins magically floats down from the clouds, carried by her umbrella, to take care of the Banks’ children.
