The Prince of Wales Will Participate in UN Climate Conference in South America
Prince William is scheduled to attend the COP30 climate summit in South America during November, as confirmed by palace sources.
Prince William and King Charles made a joint appearance on Thursday night at a event preceding the environmental conference, which is scheduled to take place in the northern Brazilian city of Belem.
The royal pair were participating in the museum gathering, marking an rare public appearance together at a climate summit preparatory event co-hosted by the United Kingdom administration.
Environmental Advocacy Dedication
The King has been a consistent supporter of biodiversity preservation - and Prince William has inherited the mission, with his own climate innovation awards, which will be taking place in South America before the climate conference.
Official representatives have described the Prince's participation at the upcoming climate summit as assuming an important role in "global climate discussions".
Previous Activities
The King and Prince of Wales, arriving together in the official car, were greeted attendees such as environmentalists, researchers, climate change campaigners, diplomats and politicians.
This engagement included speaking alongside French leader Macron of the French Republic and other world leaders at the Marine Economy Conference in the Principality of Monaco in recent months.
Earthshot Awards Connection
The COP30 summit will align with the William's personal Earthshot environmental awards, which will wrap up in the Brazilian city the day before he attends the climate conference on 6 November.
In recent days the prince characterized the award contenders as "modern-day pioneers".
Royal Climate Legacy
The monarch has been a prominent presence at past COP meetings, providing the introductory remarks in the United Arab Emirates for COP28, including the reminder: "We are custodians of the planet, not its owners".
"Throughout my life I've dedicated a significant amount of my life trying to alert people to the survival risks facing us over climate change, global temperature increases and species extinction," the monarch informed delegates.
