So glad to see Prince Albert involved in the environment (which he always has been btw), especially now, in light of what happened with the BP oil spill and the fallout from that still going on, as well as the nuclear disaster in Japan last year that has affected the water, especially the marine life. And then all the weird weather changes going on throughout the world...

So BRAVO to Prince Albert of Monaco for his environmental work!

Albert seems younger in these pics, maybe he had good rest? Albert continues here what he started long ago, advocating for the Mediterranean environment.
