Crown Princess Mary of Denmark (C) dances with locals after planting mangroves in Nadi, Fiji, on April 27, 2023. Mangrove forests have several advantages in relation to climate change - they protect exposed coastal areas from flooding, and at the same time, mangroves can store far more CO2 than many other types of tropical forest. The Crown Princess and the Minister for Development Cooperation and Global Climate Policy Dan Jorgensen are visiting Vanuatu and Fiji from April 23 to 27, 2023. The visit focuses on the challenges that the local communities of the Pacific islands face in connection with climate change. (Photo by Ida Marie Odgaard/Ritzau Scanpix via AFP Photo)
