About His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco

Prince Albert is leading efforts to protect the environment through the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation. His foundation aims to raise awareness and encourage effective response to our planet's greatest environmental challenges. Most recently, the Prince has focused his foundation's efforts on promoting scientific research and protection of our planet's vulnerable polar regions. Prince Albert is also addressing the problem of ocean acidification, a side effect of climate change which threatens millions of marine organisms that form shells and skeletons, potentially disrupting the entire ocean food web. He is a strong supporter of the Monaco Declaration, which urges international policymakers to sharply reduce CO₂ emissions to avoid widespread damage to marine ecosystems from ocean acidification.
