Prince William has arrived in Brazil for his first official visit, where he will host his annual Earthshot Prize competition.
Whilst he’s there, he will deliver a speech at the COP climate conference.
The prize, created by the prince five years ago, awards £1m every year to five projects for their environmental innovations.
There have been almost 2,500 nominees this year from 72 countries – this year’s winners will be chosen by Prince William and his Earthshot Prize Council which includes the actor Cate Blanchett and Jordan’s Queen Rania.
