The Prince of Wales has disclosed that the prospect of becoming a grandfather has reinforced his environmental beliefs because he does not want to “hand on an increasingly dysfunctional world”.

The Prince, an outspoken campaigner on environmental issues, told ITV’s This Morning that he did not want the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s child, due to be born this summer, to ask him why he had not done more to tackle issues like climate change. …

Charles has been a strong advocate of taking action to protect the environment for many years. In 2007 he set up The Prince’s Rainforest Group to find a solution to save the world’s threatened forests. He addressed a UN international climate summit in Copenhagen in 2009 and the following year he gave a keynote speech to the Oslo Climate and Forest Conference. …

At least Al Gore does it for the money. He’s made a pile of it pushing this stuff.

Prince Charles, on the other hand, seems to have an IQ of about 50. He’s never done anything sensible in his life, as far as I can see.

Once when commenting about the Royal Family,Eddie Izzard observed that it's a bad idea when cousins marry because it causes the IQ to go right down the toilet.I think Charles is living proof of the validity of that comment.

Charles, Charles... as long as plate tectonics and subduction keeps going, the planet will be fine. A couple of billion years from now, no-one will know we were here.

It's not like we're importing poison from off the planet, or exporting water off the planet. Everything God put here is still right here.

Thanks Olog-hai. I tried, I really did, to find the photo of Chucky in muzzie garb, planting a tree, in Turkey I think, it seems to have been scrubbed from the vast reaches of the www.

The gene pool of the House of Hanover has been fished out since the days of George II.

The planet is cleaner than it’s ever been, the air is cleaner, our cities are practically spotless compared to the cities of the middle ages. People are living 2 to 3 times longer than 200 years ago, our drinking water is nearly perfect and there are more trees in the US today than in 1492.

These people don’t know what the heck they are talking about.
