Crown Princess Victoria attended a digital meeting with Professor Johan Rockström on a busy Thursday for the heir to the Swedish throne.
During the meeting, Johan Rockström, head of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, spoke about the work on climate issues after the United Nations climate conference COP26, held in Glasgow in November 2021. The report “10 New Insights in Climate Science 2021,” which was presented during COP26, was also discussed.
The Crown Princess followed the introduction with great enthusiasm, and the Royal Court published some photographs from the conversation.
The conversation between the Crown Princess, her secretary and adjutant and the professor was digital.
For many years, the Swedish Crown Princess has paid a lot of attention to climate problems, as has her good friend, relative and close colleague, Crown Prince Haakon of Norway. Among other things, the Crown Princess has, in recent years, put a lot of focus on nature by walking through many of Sweden’s national parks.
As head of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, Johan Rockström leads one of Europe’s most prominent centres for climate and sustainability research. He is also a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Forestry and Agriculture and the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
Earlier in the day, Her Royal Highness attended a meeting on Swedish foreign policy with her father, King Carl XVI Gustaf.
