The Prince of Wales arrived on an electric bus for an event about tackling climate change and protecting the environment, which was held at London's Guildhall.
On a meltingly hot day, Prince William told delegates, including London mayor Sir Sadiq Khan, about the importance of helping to "repair" the planet.
Prince William was marking the impact of his Earthshot Prize, saying the ideas for solving environmental problems made him feel "more optimistic than ever".
But he said that when we have the evidence for what works in protecting the environment, "history will ask what we did with it".
The Earthshot Prize is a 10-year scheme launched in 2020 to find innovative ways of saving the planet, with £1m in funding for five winners each year.
Now the halfway mark has passed, Prince William told his audience there had been tangible achievements from the award-winning projects, including the equivalent of taking four million cars off the road, by cutting 18 million tonnes in emissions.
There had been 85 million hectares of land, forests and rivers which had been "protected, restored and improved".

Royal posturing at its finest.
Slumming it on an electric bus.
A Royal Coach and Four wouldn’t have used any gas OR electricity.
He’s inherited a mental illness...
“Royal posturing at its finest.”
___________________________________________________________
If he’d taken a limousine and motorcade you’d be griping about that.
Kind of like beer and whisky....
Mostly grain and water....
No such thing as netzero. So no pandering.
And all the while protected by armed guards.
Be a shame if it had burst into flames and burned him to a cinder.
British song as soundtrack for thread.
Magic Bus
by the Who
Great psychedelic art.

What are the odds he'll ever ride a bus again, except for some other photo op?
UK is so far gone, they may not survive unless government-breaking steps are taken.
Must be fun for their driver(s).
There is absolutely no way to prove that no matter what we do, it changed the climate. You can’t make fact out of hypothetical.
Works for me! 🍺
Two giants, Gog and Magog, are associated with Guildhall. Legend has it that the two giants were defeated by Brutus and chained to the gates of his palace on the site of Guildhall. Early carvings of Gog and Magog were destroyed in Guildhall during the Great Fire of London. They were replaced in 1708 by a large pair of wooden statues carved by Captain Richard Saunders. These giants, on whom the current versions are based, lasted for more than two hundred years before they were destroyed in the Blitz. They, in turn, were replaced by a new pair carved by David Evans in 1953 and given to the City of London by Alderman Sir George Wilkinson, who had been Lord Mayor in 1940 at the time of the destruction of the previous versions.[20]

The case for Britain dumping the monarchy gets stronger by the day.
If you really want to repair the planet Willie, you’ll get rid of the muzzies in the U.K.
