Prince Charles has called people who deny human-made climate change a "headless chicken brigade" who are ignoring overwhelming scientific evidence.

The heir to the British throne, a dedicated environmentalist, accused "powerful groups of deniers" of mounting "a barrage of sheer intimidation" against opponents.

He made the comments at a Buckingham Palace awards ceremony on Thursday.

Charles said it was "baffling ... that in our modern world we have such blind trust in science and technology that we all accept what science tells us about everything — until, that is, it comes to climate science."

He praised finalists for the Prince of Wales Young Sustainability Entrepreneur Prize for having "the far-sightedness and confidence in what they know is happening to ignore the headless chicken brigade and do something practical to help."

The Soon-To-Be-King is making Al Gore sound impressively insightful.

Who cares? The crusty doofus has zero authority in anything and is widely disliked by the British public. He’ll be another Richard III

And people wonder why the Royals have only $1.5 million left in the household account from a high of $35+ million. (Although those figures might be in pounds)

Personally I think the ‘Crown’ needs to skip a Generation and go to one of Charles’ sons.

If Charles becomes King, he will be King of 15 other nations in the Realm, including Canada. At least our King will have little but ceremonial and diplomatic duties — unlike the emerging King of the U.S., who is on track to ruling by fiat.

You bet. Princess Di brought some badly needed new blood into that family. Charles is more inbred than an Appalachian banjo picker.

The only positive thing I can find about Charles is that he seems to be a decent father.

Otherwise, he’s a raving moron.

The way things are going with the monarchy’s finances. He’ll be standing on a street corner with a cup of pencils before he is crowned.

My cats and dog have more climate sense than that fool, and they live inside-

Neither of my Brit neighbors think the twit has any credibility, or a coherent thought-one points out that he didn’t even have the cojones to tell his mum he wanted to marry Camilla, and do it, not marry wimpy Diana-he made both the women’s lives miserable and created scandal for years instead...

This drooling congenital idiot couldn’t get a job as a dustman if he hadn’t been born to royalty. He’s kissing a lot of NWO a$$ in order to avoid a trip to the Tower of London in the near future.
