APIA, SAMOA: In a commitment to combating climate change, His Majesty the King will join other Commonwealth leaders in planting a special tree. The invitation was extended by the Prime Minister of Samoa Fiame Naomi Mataafa yesterday.

“You are all invited to reduce the CHOGM carbon footprint from air travel emissions and create a CHOGM lowland forest as part of the Vailima Botanical Garden, where all countries have been allocated space to plant one of our native species and kickstart Samoa’s national carbon offset programme, “ she said. First to visit the garden was King Charles III, a day before the CHOGM opening ceremony.
