More than 300,000 people flooded the streets of Manhattan on Sunday — the biggest climate march in world history.

The rally — three times as large as organizers had predicted — stretched out for several miles along the city's Central Park and into midtown, while demonstrations in solidarity with the New York one took place all over the world — from Brazil to Australia.
