Britain's Prince Charles has blamed climate change in part for the Syrian war and warned that global warming could exacerbate similar conflicts worldwide.

Charles's comments — in an interview broadcast Monday — came exactly one week before the start of a United Nations climate change conference in Paris, where he plans to deliver a keynote address. Unless world leaders take action to slow the impact of climate change, "it’s going to get so much worse," Charles warned in the interview with Sky News, which was recorded before the Nov. 13 terrorist attacks in Paris.

"Some of us were saying 20 something years ago that if we didn't tackle these issues you would see ever greater conflict over scarce resources and ever greater difficulties over drought, and the accumulating effect of climate change, which means that people have to move," he said. "And, in fact, there's very good evidence indeed that one of the major reasons for this horror in Syria, funnily enough, was a drought that lasted for about five or six years, which meant that huge numbers of people in the end had to leave the land."

It's a good thing this guy isn't the king. And trim those damned ear hairs.

[dfwgator]

Inbred Twit.

[rdl6989]

He’s crazy, which everybody knows.

All pinheads have a point. Chaz does, too. I’d call him Zippy but that one’s taken.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

We can blame inbreeding for Prince Charles.

Prince Charles also said he wanted to be reincarnated as Camilla Parker Bowles’ tampon.

He is an aging, inbred fool and his parents don't trust him with any actual responsibility.

[AdaGray]

What a pompous little turd.

[Plumres]

And that is why he will NEVER be king.

[SandRat]

but england will always have a Queen wih him around.

[Dawgreg]

Is climate change responsible for this pompous schmucks’ ignorance?.....go sit in the corner Charlie......

[joshua c]

Long live the Queen!

[Buckeye McFrog]

He's crazy, which everybody knows.

Throwing Diana under the bus for Camilla should have been your first clue.

[onedoug]

Bonnie Prince Chuck and his steed.

[rbg81]

He has a point—it’s at the top of his head.

In better days, this kind of nonsense would have made someone a laughing stock. Now its treated as “wisdom”.

[wetgundog]

Charlie, go be a Tampex.

[CaptainK]

Some people fall in love with their own looks. That could explain Charles’s vision of love.

[Gumdrop]

There is a very good reason why Queen Elizabeth has not retired from the throne.

[DaveyB]

So he is blaming Muslim violence that began 1400 years ago on a modern dry spell in the DESERT?

[Roger Kaputnik]

Beat me to it.

[Excellence]

Why is it climate change only triggers Islamic terrorist?
