Acknowledging that it’s very “anxiety-making” and “unnerving” for younger generations grappling with the idea that there potentially might not be a planet to live on in a few decades time, the prince reasoned it was “quite crucial to be focusing on this [planet] rather than giving up and heading out into space to try and think of solutions for the future.” William also questioned the carbon footprint associated with sending people into space, confirming he had zero interest in embarking on such a trek himself. With climate conference COP26 taking place in Scotland, however, the beloved royal found himself face to face with Bezos for the first time since making these incendiary comments.
