LONDON (UK) – Prince William has voiced his concerns about rising sea levels and the impacts climate change has had, in a television documentary to be aired in Britain on Monday, the ITV channel reported.
William was talking about the same during an interview, on the royal Sandringham Estate, which is located in East Anglia.
William said that climate change posed a lot of threats to everyone, including in Britain.
William said, “You’ll lose the wildlife habitats here, you’d lose the farming, you’d lose the communities.”
“It’s in everyone’s interest that we protect these sorts of areas. We have to get on top of the climate change issue.”
William said extreme weather events was a threat, including on his own doorstep at Sandringham.
“You suddenly realise those extreme events are going to happen more and more in the future. And also how low-lying, particularly this part of East Anglia all is.”
The royals have intermittently initiated campaigns on issues of public interest that are deemed uncontroversial.
