According to the Prince, “too many people are living too lavishly for the good of the planet. They consume too much in every phase of their lives—too much housing, too much food, too much travel, too much entertainment, you name it.”

OK. So ABDICATE your position and go live in a hut.

Bah! Didn’t notice this was satire. Can’t tell the difference these days.

“I have been the victim of unbelievable abuse for my efforts to promote a better environment,” he said. According to the Prince, “too many people are living too lavishly for the good of the planet. They consume too much in every phase of their lives—too much housing, too much food, too much travel, too much entertainment, you name it.”

Can't figure out why a prince telling people to not live too lavishly might encourage that abuse?

Look up "let them eat cake" on Wikipedia and see if that gives you a clue numbskull.

Quick environmental quiz:

Which house is energy efficient and environmentally responsible, and which house is wasteful and destroying the planet?

Green Prince Charles eh...

I guess that's why he has a TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE tucked into the top of his woolly sock when wearing a kilt....

Just to check those tire pressures on the Royal Rolls,

I love it when adulterous, parasitical, self indulgent, self righteous, condescending, elitist fops like Prince Charlie boy tell other people how to live and think.

It’s no sweat off of his rich a$$ to do so. He’s never going to have to live “simply”.

Oops, just noticed that this is satire.

Just in case though, here’s my outrage.

I love it when adulterous, parasitical, self indulgent, self righteous, condescending, elitist fops like Prince Charlie boy tell other people how to live and think.

It’s no sweat off of his rich a$$ to do so. He’s never going to have to live “simply”. What does he know about living simply? Zilch!

I’m sure Chuck and Al Gore will be making their grand tour in a private jet, be met by limos at their destinations and will be staying at the finest hotels while they exhort people to stop having such lavish lifestyles. Their hypocrisy has no limit.
