William added it was "Amazing to also hear about their Youth Ocean Network — a passionate group of young people driving change and shaping the future of ocean conservation."

Lauding the group's work he wrote, "Inspiring work that shows the power of people coming together to protect our planet."

The Prince of Wales has shown great interest in fighting climate change during the last few years.
