- "I saw first-hand the extent to which people were dedicating their time, talent, and vision.” Prince William acknowledges the game-changers and leaders who contributed to this year’s Earthshot Prize.
--
Over the last ten years, the evidence that we face urgent challenges to protect the environment has become indisputable, and it’s clear that the time to act is now. Drawing inspiration from the concept of moonshots, which since the moon landing in 1969 has become shorthand to talk about the most ambitious and ground-breaking goals, Prince William announced The Earthshot Prize: an ambitious set of challenges to inspire a decade of action to repair the planet.
We believe in the power of human ingenuity to prove to us all that the seemingly impossible is possible.

#EarthshotPrize #PrinceWilliam #AwardsSpeech
William's speech was not profound. It wasn't complicated. It was a simple, straight forward speech to encourage others. He seems to accept the role as a facilitator because of his platform. He highlights an issue, then finds people that are working to solve them and brings them together to build a force of positive change. It is powerful because of the simplicity of building up others.
To champion the dreamers....I love that
You are confusing.
@charlottesmail1056. ❤absolutely dead right.
Will said😊
Yes he does. So proud of Prince William
Everyone support and share Earthshot on all your social media . Support the winners and their channels and causes . Support the great people that are here to do good .
God Bless HRH Prince William and his family .
Beautiful ❤wonderful to have a go at so many African indigenous language.
William highlighted others' achievement. The best solution often comes from those who live the experience. Great initiatives!
How great is this! Putting is passion unto others by example. Challenging kids to think, use their imagination, giving them motivation, courage, educational, having fun, meeting all kinds of people and get acknowledged for it!! Great job, Prince William!!
A man who has used his position and privilege to build something that will have such a positive impact on the lives of millions is a man to be admired. Nothing in his speech was about stroking his own ego or whining about perceived slights...it was about highlighting the brilliant minds and work of the people who are going to save our planet. Well done Your Royal Highness...well done! You will be an outstanding King. ❤🌏❤️🇬🇷
What a fabulous comment. There are so many people with position and privilege who would do well to take note of what Prince William is doing. Not just with Earthshot but also with Homewards.
Prince William we Thank you and amazing people who have solutions to help save our Planet , Big Applauds to you All
Our planet don't need to be saved
@@Uzalo_101Billions of people will not sgree with you. Do not stay an ignoramus all of your life
@@Uzalo_101😢Sad to read you think that way.
As a South African I got goosebumps when he greeted and thanked the people in some of our native languages.
Me too I am in tears
Great respect to us as South Africans.I Am impressed
I felt thankful and proud, we love the prince of wales ❤
Okay...and as an American, I too am impressed with him, his dignity, his respect toward others, and for the world.
"You people" are very fortunate - appreciate it and enjoy it while you have it in the palms of your hands.
Sadly, "we people" did not appreciate what we had, and I apologize to the world for our immaturity and foolishness.
Prince William is just William, no airs or graces, just a humble, caring, kind human being. His face is a window into his generous heart.
Dear Prince William, your speech uplifted this 🇺🇸grandmothers spirits. As I see my grandchildren grow and achieve in their educational goals they too in their future lives will also care very much about their environment. God bless you, your wife, Princess Catherine and your growing children. Two years ago when you were in Boston my grandson, then a freshman at Harvard was disappointed that he wasn’t able to have seen and/or perhaps would have met you and your wife however his schedule didn’t permit him to miss any of his classes. May God bless you, your wife and your children. I wish the contestants this year the very best. Look forward to the award winners. It is for events like the Earthshot Awards, that we are blest that the Internet exists so the world can experience the positive things that are going on in the world. From an 🇺🇸grandmother
WOW, congratulations and a big thank you to you all and , especially to HRH Prince William, for taking care of our planet, of us and yes, of our future generations! #EarthshotPrize #PrinceWilliam
Now Harry, that's how you give a great speech, concentrating on what the events about & respecting the country that you're visiting.
The difference between giving and taking!
@@margaretnicol3423EXACTLY ! 🇨🇦✝️🇬🇧
No...my mother in his speech
And you don't have a wife worming her way around to take the microphone.
Stop comparing the 2 brothers..let William be heir apparent..let Harry create, inspire and live his own life away from them. Stop evoking your troll narrative.
This is what a real and worthy charity looks like and does. Prince William is the best kind of leader -- confident but always focused on recognizing the people who are doing the work and envisioning solutions for positive change.
It's also so wonderful to see that Prince William has weathered the stress of the last years and only looks more handsome, leaner and more confident and steady.
We are proud of you, your character and strength, and the work you do.
I am an American and am so impressed by the charitable programs the Royals support and initiate. It astounds me that there is so much criticism toward them. It appears those doubters have no clue what the Royals actually do, not only for their country, but around the world. Prince William is an inspiration.
I think people get jealous sadly …. Yes tax money goes to them but for each household it’s not a crazy amount . What the RF brings to the countries is worth the money ….. they also tax themselves 45 percent ! I suppose haters gotta hate😮
Thank u 💜💜💜
Although I have lived in Canada for 40 + years, I have never been more proud to be an Anglo Canadian. The country will be in good hands with William and Kate when that time comes. Prince Charles has instigated many many charitable initiatives in his time a Prince of Wales, often with scant appreciation. He must be very proud of the current Prince of Wales and Catherine his. Princess of Wales.

No papers.. great speech
No word salads, no buzz words, no doom and gloom just a straight clear message. Well done William ❤
Absolutely. Also without any hand flapping, pacing backwards and forwards or making it about himself.
Now this is a prime example of whom to follow🌺
Good evening, Prince William, and welcome in Cape Town. I am so glad to see you visiting our beautiful Town. 🎉🎉
Thank you addressing me in my native language... Afrikaans. Quite impressive 👏
God bless Prince William and all he does! Earthshot Prize is our hope now and for a safe and bright future, luckily we have a brilliant prince who is there to uplift others and see them succeed for our future ❤
Oh Prince William what a hottie, he is so statesman like, he commands attention, and what a great job he is doing for Earthshot. Prince William has one of those voices you can listen to forever.
Your Royal highness ❤❤❤
Keep it up Earthshot, we need your work to heal Earthmother. Well done...
Prince William looks great. He always speaks well & from the heart. Well done, William.
From America 🇺🇸… Bravo 👏 excellent work! Earthshot 🏆
The kind of leader this world needs . Thank you Prince William
He has a wonderful talent of connecting with people from all walks of life and the skillset to bring them together to follow his lead. He truly is a visionary and a phenominal leader.
Thumbs up to Princess Diana ❤
Useless like his Father! They champion the easy stuff! England are dire with Leadership of STARMER!& King & all are doing nothing about it!
Prince William is amazing, well done and God bless him, thank you to all at Earthshot

You champion Prince William 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇦🇺
Princess William is showing us what a great King he’ll be his speeches are wonderful❤this is the true monarchy in action❤Africa is lucky to have real royal visit❤❤❤❤
@lindasimpson6768 It's Prince William not princess. I hope that was a misspell. my opinion
A masterstroke this speech was, well done to the Prince of Wales for his stupendous, heart-warming and sincere delivery. Much love and appreciate from South Africa. Pleased to learn that Africa treated you well.
You are most blessed, most honoured and most loved our future king. Many thanks to you for everything you do to clean our earth.
Prince William is a true visionary with..the necessary skillset to bring that vision to fruition. He has a wonderful talent of connecting with people from all walks of life and knows how to inspire them to follow him. There are not many people with those abilities. He is a phenominal leader and roll model. The world need more people like him. There is an interview with Hannah Jones, CEO of Earthshot by African Newsroom. It gives one such a better understanding of the huge scope of the Earthshot and its functioning. It is very informative and well worth watching
Yes he reminds me of Prince Albert♥️
Thank you HRH Prince William 🌍 for such a heartfelt speech.
This makes me want to come and visit. HRH prince William is so inspiring 🔥
The speech was on point! South Africans love William. He inspires others by supporting them instead of owning the success himself.
When I travelled to Cape Town, I went there to do the ‘tourist trip’ but little did I know that it would be a part of a spiritual awakening. I cannot even describe how beautiful this country is. During the day, I went out to discover Cape Town and at night I slept like a baby. See you soon again Cape Town!
Oh wonderful. I am so glad that you enjoyed your stay in our besutiful mother city. Get home safely
Prince William is a man who has shown us the urgency of finding solutions to climate change. He is truly a man of his time and in this moment when there are so many things that we see happening in our world that are upsetting his effort in bringing people together who have hope for a better world for all our children. It won’t happen overnight but it can happen sooner if we engage and have hope!
BRAVO SIR!
True mark of a nobility! Well done His Royal Highness Prince William. You reflect the qualities of love, kindness and compassion you have inherited from your beloved Grandmother and mother. You will be a just King!
His father also has those qualities in spades.
No doubt!
@@annatjienilsen539yes, everyone forgets Charles (and his father, P Philip) has shown he is a kind, compassionate man who has been forward thinking about climate change for years
What a wonderful speech given by The Great Prince of Wales 🌎🥰🇺🇸
Lovely to hear a great speak not just word salad
Prince William aka has His Royal Hotness. 🔥What a speech he gets that from his father the KC the best speech giver. IMO

Duke of wokery
I love this man!!!! Genuine words from someone who wants to have an effect by WORKING with others! He acknowledges that it will be the next generation who have the biggest effect. The solution will come from small seeds. Earthshot is a genuine effort for change. Go Prince William!!!

Wow just look at the many supporters that have turned up to give their support to Prince William for the Earthshot Prize. That's how it's done not a straggly few but a host of people who mean to honour the work being done for the Planet.
His resemblance to Diana is astounding..Never talked about himself, always prized people..Beautiful speech..real lider.. Not mumbling and word salad . ,no idiotic jokes...
Spot on!👍🏽
Wow look at the size of that crowd. Well done Prince William. Earthshot has come a long, long way.
It just keeps getting better 💚
I always think that Prince William means every single word when he makes a speech and is thoroughly genuine and kind. How can two brothers be so different? but thank goodness William married a good woman to support him. Together, they will do good in the world.
You will make a perfect King in future Prince William, may God guide you through every decision you make and blessings be upon you and your beautiful family 🙏🙏🌹❤
Long live earthshot & Prince of Wales

Congratulations to all the participants and winners!
Lived in South Africa in my youth as an Exchange Student. Was able to travel throughout southern Africa and visit Cape Town. Lovely people and beautiful city. One day I hope to return.
Such a smart , Warm and empathetic leader !
William is an impressive speaker, and more importantly, creative problem solver. I am his mother’s age, we are so extremely proud of him.🇨🇦
I am a South African. Thanks for visiting our country.
Long live Prince of Wales 👑
From Austria🇦🇹
I love ❤️ Prince William from 🇺🇸🙏❤️🙏
How lovely is his speech.? No word salad
What a warm welcome for William
William will be an extraordinary king and leader. Thank you for making a difference and for the honour to have been present in my country, South Africa. You mom would have been so proud and indeed your father knows he has an outstanding smart son. So does the whole world. Well done!!!!!
No word salad in this speech, just honest concern for the future and appreciation and encouragement to join in his vision to make the world better for everyone. His thoughtfulness in speaking even just a few words of the local language shows his respect for his host and the people of South Africa. He will be an amazing future King. Harry needs to take note and learn from his brother.
Harry told William that this idea will never work. He said the same of William's willdlife projects, but was unable to start Invictus even though he got the idea frrom America's Warrior Games. He immediately wanted money from the Royal Foundation and when he wasctold that he first need to get a working plan for it, he gave up. His private secretary got himm off his bum after more than two months of doing nothing. His African Parks, which was not his brainchild but an existing organization, seems to be in a mess and he was asked to step down as president
The Traitor is an arrogant selfish self made Victim to care about anyone but himself he will never change.... he is what he is a lazy Grifter A Judas who could never be trusted.
Well done prince William you make our country so 👏 ❤
WHAT a MAN!
What a Gentleman.
What a speech!
What a ROYAL !
Nous charisma
What an inspiration prince william is for us all around the world, bless him❤
@@ElbeVanTonder Just like Kc and Epstein Andy. What a guy lol
William could have worn another colour of sustainable clothes especially blue shirt with brown jacket black trousers and white trainers they do all colours of sustainable shoes and clothes
@@pattytada9117 Cry more.
His speaking is great compared to Harry’s scratchy voice. Way to go Prince William!
Es un amor sercano ala gente cálido e irradia seguridad y será un gran rey...
Let's not even mention the ingrate in the same sentence as Prince William. Prince William is a statesman the other is a whiner.
No arm flapping either .👏👋
You wish,🤣 Harry is fun to watch. William looked tense. No one can relate. Harry naturally makes speeches, he follows with it. William looks tense, forced to be jovial
Relax they are not two peas in a pod...they are in different pods....hope no one compares you that unfairly with your siblings or friends for your God given characteristics
Definitivamente tu príncipe William serás juzgados por tus deberes más que por tus placeres ..
Mis congratulaciones futuro rey de Reino Unido 🇬🇧.. Por tu gran trabajo de premiar a los que salvan el planeta 🪐..Saludos a la hermosa y elegante princesa Catherine ..
This is what real leadership looks like.
Prince William great speech ❤
❤ thank you Prince William
