This week, Prince William celebrated the fourth year of his Earthshot prize in South Africa.
The Prince of Wales will attend next year’s COP climate conference in Brazil, it has been confirmed, as he pushes to “use his platform to spread urgent optimism” around the environmental debate.
It follows Prince William’s week-long trip to South Africa where he celebrated the fourth year of his annual Earthshot prize.
He launched the environmental awards in 2021 to try and counter the pessimism around climate crisis discussions.
Now he wants to take that message to the high-level UN climate conference – due to take place in Belem next November.
A royal source said: “Throughout his trip (to South Africa) the prince spoke about the importance of not losing sight of what needs to be done between now and 2030 – the Earthshot decade.
“His commitment to restoring the future of the planet is unwavering and the prince is determined to do all he can to use his platform to spread urgent optimism.
