In a BBC interview Princess Anne has highlighted the threat that illegal logging poses to the forests of many tropical countries.

Princess Anne also outlined the need to provide economic alternatives to the cash on offer from loggers and to ensure that communities have access to the funds + law enforcement necessary to protect their natural resources...
