Prince William to visit Boston for second annual Earthshot Prize

In order to protect the environment, Prince William launched the Earthshot Prize last year. It carries a handsome prize amount to encourage others to dream up concrete projects in order to save the environment. This is a 10-year project. The Prince announced that this year Boston would play host and the ceremony would be held in December at the JFK Presidential Library and Museum. Since Prince William would be in the United States, there is curiosity on whether he would take time off to meet his brother Harry and family who stay in California. However, this might not be feasible because of the enormous distance between the two states. Prince William 'very unlikely' to visit Prince Harry during US trip, experts say

Prince William, the Duke of Cambridge, became interested in protecting the environment. He drew inspiration from The Prince of Wales and The Duke of Edinburgh. The elders have tried to pass across this message throughout their lives. An official of the Royal Foundation revealed how Prince William views the subject. These can be summarized firstly as – “what is the maximum positive personal contribution I can make in the next ten years in the fight against climate change?” Next comes - "what am I going to do in the next decade that means I can look my children in the eye and say that I did my bit?” He admits that the challenges our planet faces are immense. He cautions that loss of trees, burning of fossil fuels and generating unwanted waste are damaging the environment. These need to be set right in order to restore the balance of nature.
