    Earthshot Prize finalist LCM thanks Prince William for putting firm in global spotlight

    The founders of a County Durham firm have thanked Prince William for thrusting them onto the global stage in the Earthshot Prize, despite being pipped to the post in the contest.

    Seaham-based Low Carbon Materials (LCM) was one of just 15 finalists from around the world in this year’s Earthshot Prize, which was first launched two years ago by The Royal Foundation of the then Duke and Duchess of Cambridge to incentivise change and help repair the planet over the next 10 years. The prize centres around five Earthshots: protect and restore nature, clean our air, revive our oceans, build a waste-free world and fix our climate.
