LONDON, Sept 21 — Prince William today hailed his late grandmother’s passion for the environment as he called for the “fastest change the world has ever known” in transitioning to sustainable energy sources.
“Although it is the saddest of circumstances that means I cannot join you in person today, I am pleased to be able to join you in video,” he said, two days after the funeral for his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, who died on September 8. “Protecting the environment was a cause close to my grandmother’s heart, and I know she would have been delighted to hear about this event and the support you are all giving our Earthshot Finalists — the next generation of environmental pioneers.”
His environmentalism also follows the example of his late grandfather Prince Philip, a former president of the World Wildlife Fund, and his father, the new King Charles III, who has long warned of the dangers of climate change.
