Prince William took part in an important video call with young environmental activists from around the world.
Earlier this week, the royal, 38, spoke with seven young people from all four corners of the globe as he begins the countdown to his groundbreaking Earthshot Prize.
The representatives from the UN Environment Programme’s Young Champions of the Earth initiative told him about the challenges facing each of their regions and passed on their ideas for innovative solutions needed to address the problems.
During the call with William, which was chaired by UNEP’s Executive Director Inger Andersen, the group also talked about the response to their projects from local communities, as well as the particular constraints caused by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
