Planting a Tree with Guillaume and Stéphanie

Hereditary Grand Duke Guillaume and Hereditary Grand Duchess Stéphanie, accompanied by Ministers Claude Meisch and Carole Dieschbourg, attended a tree planting session by children aged eight to 14 by "Plant for the Planet", a children's initiative that aims to raise awareness amongst children and adults about the issues of climate change and global justice. The day also included courses for the children on causes and consequences of climate change and prevention.

The Hereditary Grand Duke and Hereditary Grand Duchess set a good example by planting a tree themselves and apparently having fun doing so. Afterwards, they made their way to the Artikuss concert hall in Soleuvre where Hereditary Grand Duchess Stéphanie, who is the patron of the initiative in Luxembourg, handed out diplomas to the young climate ambassadors.
