Prince Charles, addressing a small business group in London, called climate change a bigger danger than terrorism.

The heir to the British throne urged business to take advantage of technology to become more energy efficient. He was speaking at a meeting of the Confederation of British Industry, The Scotsman reported.

The prince quoted John Coomber, a director of an organization that assesses risk who called global warming the number one risk in the world, ahead of terrorism and demographic change.

'I think he has got a point,' Prince Charles said.

And I say the Prince's ears are bigger than global warming.

The Brits have Prince Charles, we have Algore. But at least Prince Charles doesn't go to Arab countries and get paid to make speeches against his own country. Algore should be in prison--or a mental hospital.

Prince Charles:
Wasting air while waiting for momma to croak.

End product of hundreds of years of inbreeding.

Another move to soften the WOT. Is Arabic a second language in the UK like Spanish is in the USA? If not it won't be long before it is.

That must be it - because Prince Al Gore thinks the same way. Must be all that free time they have being unemployed and everything. I wonder if they both smoke the same weed?

You would think he would use those ears of his for something more than self-proctology.

Global warming made it possible for civilization.

Who caused the glaciers to melt 20,000 years ago.....farting mastadons?

Why don't these imbeciles get a real job like picking fruit or vegetables?

Old Buck-tooth's assertion would make a lot of since except for a couple of problems-- (A) There is no such thing as 'global warming' and (B) There is such a thing as terrorism.
