(ANSA) - LONDON, 02 NOV - "Making the impossible possible".

The Duke of Cambridge, accompanied by his wife Kate, has confirmed himself as a staunch supporter of the environmentalist battle against global warming, in the footsteps of his father and heir to the throne Charles, historic pioneer of ecology and protagonist of the Glasgow gallery from the very beginning after having also been at the G20 in Rome.
To the leaders, whom Carlo had urged yesterday to battle climate change as if it were in times of war, William today made an appeal to change their mentality: to "think differently" to save the planet.
A goal that Elisabetta herself - absent, but present yesterday with an ad hoc video message - did not fail to underline in the name of the new ever greener image that the Windsor house wants to give of itself: encouraging the heads of state and government - with words exalted on the front page of several Kingdom newspapers and judged to have a strong emotional impact - to show statesmanship qualities, to look beyond the present.
And to accept the idea that "no one lives forever", but it is imperative to safeguard the future "of our children, of our children, of those who will come after".
