Official representatives have characterized William's involvement at the next COP as stepping up an crucial position in "global climate discussions".

Previous Activities

The monarch and his heir, arriving together in the official car, were welcomed attendees such as environmentalists, scientists, climate change campaigners, diplomats and politicians.

This engagement involved presentations together with President Emmanuel Macron of the French Republic and other international figures at the Ocean Finance Summit in Monaco in recent months.

Environmental Prize Link

The COP30 summit will align with the the royal's sustainability recognition program, which will conclude in Rio de Janeiro the previous day he attends the COP summit on the sixth of November.

Royal Climate Legacy

The monarch has been a influential participant at past COP meetings, giving the opening address in the United Arab Emirates for COP28, including the observation: "We are custodians of the planet, not its owners".

"Throughout my life I've dedicated a substantial portion of my life trying to alert people to the existential threats challenging our world over climate change, environmental shifts and biodiversity loss," the sovereign addressed delegates.
