Kensington Palace has revealed that The Duke of Cambridge will address a Chinese audience about the importance of protecting our precious wildlife.
In a tweet the palace explained, “The Duke has accepted an October invitation to talk on Chinese TV about the urgent need to protect wildlife.”
They added: “He’ll speak to an audience of millions of Chinese people of his generation on this important issue through ‘Let’s Talk’ on CCTV1.”
“The Duke is grateful to have this opportunity to explain how people around the world must work together to save some of the planet’s most critically endangered species before they are lost forever,” the statement read.
Before explaining, “he considers this issue an important test for his generation’s ability to solve the much more complex global challenges it will face in the decades to come.”
The television appearance will be filmed in London in mid-October and shown to a giant Chinese audience soon after.
Prince William shares the same sentiment to save endangered animals as his younger brother, Prince Harry.
The father-of-two is the president of United for Wildlife, an organisation campaigning against the devastating illegal trade of elephant ivory and furthering the protection of endangered species.
Prince William, Duchess Catherine and Prince Harry have a very busy few months coming up.
The future King’s latest engagement comes after the news of his wife, Duchess Catherine’s next appearance, that will raise awareness about children’s mental health.
Kensington Palace have hinted at a jam-packed calendar for William, Harry and Catherine as we head into the final months of the year, including a trip to Washington for the fifth-in-line to the throne.
The Duke and Duchess also will have plenty to juggle prior to Christmas with numerous engagements, including trips to Wales and appearances in support of the Rugby World Cup… Not to mention Princess Charlotte’s first Christmas!
