Earthshot Prize winners will receive £1 million
The Earthshot Prize will honour the five best potential solutions – from around the world – to environmental problems such as climate change, air pollution and biodiversity loss.
Each winner will receive £1 million (R22.7 million).
It is the fourth year the awards are being handed out, with previous ceremonies in Singapore last year, Boston in 2022 and London in 2021.
Britain’s Prince William is currently in the Mother City for the award ceremony which will take place at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (CTICC) on Tuesday, 5 November.
