In the episode, the Prince of Wales manned a food truck that sold products from companies the prize has recognized, including the plant-based Earthshot Burger and Notpla biobased packaging.
William conceived the Earthshot Prize four years ago—back when he “had hair,” the royal quipped—but officially launched the prize two years ago. “It’s designed as an environmental prize tackling the world’s greatest environmental problems,” he added.
In the episode, Prince William also sold products from Indian start-up Kheyti’s Greenhouse-in-a-box and Kenyan entrepreneur Charlot Magayi’s Mukuru Clean Stoves. The third annual Earthshot Prize will be handed out in Singapore this fall.
