Crown Princess Mary’s trip to Bangladesh
Crown Princess Mary is on a three day trip in Bangladesh and has shared her adventures in a selfie-style vlog online.
Princess Mary arrived at Dhaka where she was greeted by Bangladesh’s Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina Wazed to start off her business trip.
The 50-year-old was accompanied on the trip by Development Cooperation Flemming Møller Mortensen, who together met with workers from Danish companies in Bangladesh.
The Princess is working toward an agreement which would see both countries collaborate on green, Earth-friendly products.
In the incredible footage, Princess Mary is speaking in Dutch to her loyal fans, explaining the purpose of her trip.
“On this journey, the focus is on the consequences of climate change for the population, nature and biodiversity, for Bangladesh is one of the world's most climate vulnerable countries, and it is expected that by 2050, up to 20 million people will be displaced,' Princess Mary says.
“We need to focus more than ever on the diversity of nature and to promote projects aimed at conserving and protecting nature.
“In Bangladesh, there is a worrying pressure on natural resources. At the same time, the country is one of the most vulnerable countries in relation to the negative consequences of climate change - also for the population.
“This means, among other things, that people often have to move because they can no longer grow their crops or because areas are flooded.”
The video, which has been viewed more than 77,000 times received praise from her fans, commending the princess for her work.
“Important work, thank you for sharing!” someone wrote.
“Important to see you out in the field keeping it real Mary. Good work x,” another wrote.
“Thank you so much for all of your work crown Princess,” someone else commented.
In other posts, the Princess is seen taking selfies with members of the community, playing with children all while on her trip.
