Britain’s Prince William, in a speech, criticized Africa’s population growth and its impact on the environment and nature.
“The increasing pressure on Africa’s wild animals and habitats by humans poses major challenges to conservationists and the world at large,” the 39-year-old told The Times on Monday evening at Britain’s Tusk Awards. It is estimated that Africa’s population will double to around 2.5 billion people by 2050.
