STORYLINE:
Britain’s Prince William met on Wednesday with the 15 finalists of the 2024 Earthshot Prize, speaking with them at the Kirstenbosch Gardens in Cape Town.
William is in South Africa to promote his annual Earthshot Prize, which awards 1.2 million US dollars in grants to five entrepreneurs or organisations for innovative ideas that help the environment and combat climate change.
"My interaction with the prince was really, really interesting and very nice because it was a casual conversation. He just expressed curiosity," said Desmond Alugnoa, an Earthshot Prize finalist.
Prince William wore white biodegradable sneakers as he walked the “green carpet” at his Earthshot Prize awards ceremony on Wednesday, the centerpiece of a four-day climate and environment-focused trip to South Africa by the heir to the British throne.
The prince’s four-day visit is a kind of environmental roadshow and is heavily focused on climate and conservation, though he did break away from those issues on his first day in Cape Town on Monday to attend a rugby practice at a local high school and play a little of South Africa’s favorite sport with some of the kids.
William went on an early-morning nature walk near South Africa’s Table Mountain on Tuesday to promote the work of conservation rangers in a unique urban national park.
The Prince of Wales and heir to the British throne met with some of the rangers who guard the Table Mountain National Park, an 85-square-mile (220-square kilometer) area that overlooks Cape Town and spills into the city’s suburbs in some areas.
