Prince George Expresses Frustration Over State of the Planet
In a recent school assignment, Prince George, the 10-year-old royal, became confused and irritated about the state of the planet.
Alongside his siblings Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5, Prince George is currently enjoying his well-deserved summer break from school.
The royal family, who moved from Kensington Palace in London to Adelaide Cottage in Windsor last year, enrolled their children in a new school called Lambrook.
However, it seems that Prince George's participation in litter-picking events has left him dissatisfied with the current state of the environment.
During a BBC podcast in 2021, Prince William, their father, revealed that Prince George had been showing signs of confusion and annoyance after participating in these activities.
Prince William shared, “So George at school has recently been doing litter picking and I didn't realize but talking to him the other day he was already showing that he was getting a bit confused and a bit sort of annoyed by the fact they went out litter picking one day and then the very next day they did the same route, same time, and pretty much all the same litter they picked up back again.”
It appears that Prince George struggled to comprehend why the litter they had previously cleaned up had not disappeared.
Prince William has been an advocate for addressing climate change and other environmental concerns.
He expressed his worry that Prince George's generation may still be grappling with these issues decades from now.
“But it shouldn't be necessary to ramp it up even further because a third generation is now emerging,” Prince William stated.
He emphasized that it would be a catastrophe if Prince George, or any successor, were still speaking about the same issues 30 years later, as it would be too late to take action.
Following their time at Lambrook, it is likely that both Prince George and Prince Louis will follow in their father's footsteps and attend Eton College at the age of 13.
Founded by King Henry VI in 1440, this prestigious institution is known for its elite education and has an annual tuition fee of £48,501.
Notable alumni include Sam and Arthur Chateau, as well as other members of the royal family such as Prince Harry, Prince William of Gloucester, and the Duke of Kent.
Prince George's experience with the school assignment has shed light on his growing awareness of environmental issues.
