G20 leaders tossed coins in the basin of the Trevi Fountain in central Rome on Sunday morning, keeping to a tradition said to ensure that they will return to the Eternal City. The leaders visited the fountain, arguably the world’s most recognizable, after a stroll in Rome's historic centre to start the second and last day of a G20 summit in the Italian capital. The fountain covers the entire facade of Rome's Palazzo Poli with its allegorical statues of Tritons guiding the shell chariot of the god Oceanus, illustrating taming the waters. Leaders of the Group of 20 major economies will sit down for a second day of talks faced with the difficult task of bridging their differences on how to combat global warming ahead of a crucial United Nations summit on climate change. The first day of the Rome summit - the leaders' first face-to-face gathering since the start of the COVID pandemic - focused mainly on health and the economy, while climate and the environment is front and centre of Sunday's agenda.
