“Despite all our human efforts, in the end we depend on nature to help us,” she reflects.
"Humankind is at the steering wheel of our planet," continues HRH Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden. "We have science, we have technology, we have an interconnected global economy, and that means we do have a choice".

Victoria started her speech:
One month ago, a 200 000-tonne ship became stranded in the Suez canal. One of the world's busiest trade routes was suddenly blocked, leaving hundreds of ships waiting to pass through.
Shortly after, an image appeared in news and social media all over the world. I am guessing most of you have seen it: a seemingly small yellow excavator, hunkered in the shadow of the enormous ship, patiently digging in the sand.
After five days of digging and tugging, the ship was freed – but not until the moon came to the rescue, in the form of a rising tide.
That image has stayed with me since. Despite all our human efforts, in the end, we still depend on nature to help us.
The speech:

In addition to Victoria, only Karolin A. Johansson and two professors, Carl Folke (Chair of the Board of Stockholm Resilience Centre) and Göran K Hansson (vice chairman of the Nobel Foundation's board), were present. And Victoria's aide-de-camp, a few technicians and three photographers.
- The meeting was virtual and coordinated from Aula Magna, and it was there that the Crown Princess gave her speech. Other participants in the summit were all over the world, connected via Zoom, says information officer Ulrika Näsholm from court's press department.
Among those who heard Victoria's speech were Nobel laureates, scientists, decision-makers, business leaders and a number of youth representatives.
