Prince William (39) is hosting a new BBC documentary together with nature filmmaker David Attenborough (95). From October 3rd, “pioneers” of environmental protection will be presented who have found innovative solutions for the most pressing climate problems.

They are the winners of an environmental prize awarded by Queen’s oldest grandson. “This is a moment of hope, not fear,” said William in a trailer released on Saturday. That is why he created the Earthsot Prize, “the most ambitious environmental prize in history”. It takes “a decade of action” to repair the earth, said William.
