Prince William's conservation charity keeps its investments in a bank that is one of the world's biggest backers of fossil fuels. The Royal Foundation also places more than half of its investments in a 'green' fund linked to large food companies that buy palm oil linked to deforestation. Second in line to the British throne, Prince William launched the Earthshot Prize and is a well-known environmentalist.
“The earth is at a tipping point and we face a stark choice,” he is quoted saying on the
websites of the Earthshot Prize and Royal Foundation.
