More than 1,000 business leaders from across the country were brought together for the May Day Summit which consisted of nine simultaneous regional events and one national 'hub' event, hosted by The Prince at St James's Palace State Apartments.
In his speech The Prince warned delegates that discussion was not enough. He said, "I would just like each of us to spend a little time thinking about the costs of not getting this right.
"I do not want my children and grandchildren, or anyone for that matter, saying to me 'Why didn't you do something when it was possible to make a difference and when you knew what was happening'."
The Prince has already decided to publish details of his own carbon footprint in this summer's annual review of his accounts, and set a target to reduce the carbon emissions of his office and household.
The Royal Family famously make great use of their Royal Jet, we look forward to seeing The Prince taking the train in the near future.
