DAVOS, Switzerland — While the World Economic Forum is known for attracting the world's elite every year to discuss the most pressing business, finance, and banking issues, it also brings in protesters demonstrating against a myriad of topics.

Many protest big business, the rise of nationalism, and corporations while promoting care of the environment, world peace, and green energy.

They include many "Green" and "Left" party activists opposed to governments seemingly willing to cater to the elite.

Not uncommon at such events, the protestors provide some satire to the political correctness and protocol that is rife.
