Prince William on Climate Change: The most consequential decade in history

“We must harness that same spirit of human ingenuity and purpose" - in his 2020 speech for TED, Prince William shared a message of confidence that we can work together to combat climate change and protect our planet.

--
Over the last ten years, the evidence that we face urgent challenges to protect the environment has become indisputable, and it’s clear that the time to act is now. Drawing inspiration from the concept of moonshots, which since the moon landing in 1969 has become shorthand to talk about the most ambitious and ground-breaking goals, Prince William announced The Earthshot Prize: an ambitious set of challenges to inspire a decade of action to repair the planet.

We believe in the power of human ingenuity to prove to us all that the seemingly impossible is possible.

What a wonderful man Prince William became. He is an inspiration to young people to work towards a cleaner and healthier environment in a safe and rational way.
His mother must be so proud 🙏

Prince William genuinely cares. He cares not only about the environment, he cares about people, in particular those who are less fortunate than others. He will make a strong king and he will be heard. He will be a very powerful man.

Watching this video gave me chillbumbs, it was like I was there talking with a friend who is passionately telling me how to make things better faster.
The way he lovingly touched the oak tree was like he touches the elephants he tries to save. I also like that he's sitting by an oak started in the era of William the conquer, that makes that tree even more special for him to sit there.
I admire William soo much for his dedication, dignity, integrity, honor and grace.
HE got the BEST qualities of his grandparents and parents ❤💙.

Anybody can mention how” easy that could be for him, with all his privileges “, but we know, “ by facts “ that not everybody in his position would use his time for good (.. brother ..selfish .. )
