Prince William recently used his platform to launch a global initiative to save our planet. It's called Earthshot - the name a reference to the "moonshot" space program associated with President John F. Kennedy in the 60's. Landing a man on the moon took the collective effort of thousands back then. Today, an even greater collective action beckons, the action to save our planet.
Earthshot will focus on rewarding those who make genuine contributions to this cause. In fact, there will be five 1 million pound winners every year from now until 2030.
In his talk to launch this project, Prince William made reference to Sir David Attenborough and his documentary A Life of our Planet. . If you ever had any doubts about the urgency to change our short sighted ways, take the time to watch it on Netflix. It's an intelligent, personal, and powerful piece.
Be part of the solution, not part of the problem.
After all, there's absolutely no truth to the saying, "We're just passing through here."
