Queen Raina is one of the judges for Prince William's Earthshot prize. Does she have any environmental credentials at all? People are saying that she once dropped a load of water in the middle of the desert during a drought for a party.
All the other judges seem to have decent credentials, so I'm wondering why she's on the committee.

going out on a limb: her qualification said yes in a wedding ceremony?

Oh I know, but has the environment ever been one of her pet causes? I thought she was particularly eco unfriendly.
I just would have thought that he'd have a gulf royal to represent the middle east, since they have more money and more power. So the choice of someone from one of the poorest countries in the middle east seems odd.

I have to say she and Dany Alves and Shakira are odd choices..
Rania has never been very keen with environmental issues,she may one or two mention ir talked about the issue but never championing the cause often...so she is an odd choice very odd one

[Thistle]

Dani Alves has done some campaigns and donatation to protect the Amazon Forest, Sharika's charity helps enpoverished comunities and teaches them how to protect the environment and that a better future can be a sustainable one. Both have connections in one way or another to environmental causes.

Rania for be was the oddest pick. Read somewhere that she has Rania worked on sustainability projects. Maybe that is it, together with her connections in the international scene.

i knew about Shakira and Dani environmental projects i just don't think that they are that ardant environment activists...
But i agree Rania is by far the oddest choice my guess they wanted someone from ME and she is the most known and glamorous

I agree, they are not hardcore environmental activits. But they have some ties and at least have some basic there, and definitely they can reach a different crowd (South America / youngsters). That is why they were picked imo.

Rania is almost "the pretty/glamorous" face there

Despite all, I think it is a quite impressive group and hopefully, they will be able to do good things for nature.
