In a delightful display of his commitment to environmental causes, Prince William, the Duke of Cambridge, surprised the public in South London on Sunday by personally serving

environmentally friendly burgers from a food truck. The unexpected event left hungry royal fans amazed and thrilled, as reported by Reuters.

The heartwarming initiative took place in collaboration with the YouTube channel Sorted Food, where a video was posted to shed light on the remarkable work of three recent winners of The Earthshot Prize.

The Earthshot Prize, established by Prince William himself, is an annual award that recognizes five outstanding individuals for their contributions in tackling major environmental challenges. The prize was first bestowed in 2021 and is intended to be an annual event until 2030. Each winner receives a generous grant of £1 million to further their environmental endeavors.

The viral YouTube video captures Prince William inside the food truck alongside the Sorted Food chefs. One diner's reaction is particularly memorable, as she is taken aback when she recognizes the prince.

With a smile, Prince William skillfully serves up the aptly named "Earthshot burgers" to the astonished customers. He engages with them warmly, explaining the significance of The Earthshot Prize and its mission to repair and regenerate the planet.

Drawing attention to the eco-friendly aspects of the meal, the prince highlights that the packaging for the burgers comes from Notpla, a company that uses a seaweed coating instead of plastic. This innovative solution aligns perfectly with the Earthshot Prize's commitment to sustainability and environmental consciousness.

Prince William goes on to reveal that the ingredients inside the burgers are sourced from Kheyti, an Indian company that grows them in a greenhouse. Furthermore, the cooking process utilizes Mukuru Clean Stoves, a concept created by a woman from Kenya, designed to reduce air pollution.

Humorously acknowledging that he cannot personally vouch for the taste and quality of the burgers, the prince remains wholeheartedly supportive of the cause. His active involvement in the food truck venture aimed to elevate the profiles of the three previous Earthshot prize winners and draw more attention to their exceptional achievements.
