Prince Harry backs eco-campaigner Greta Thunberg and says climate change is 'a race against time...
dm ^ | 9/26/2019 | By MARTIN ROBINSON, CHIEF REPORTER FOR MAILONLINE and AMIE GORDON and REBECCA ENGLISH FOR THE DAILY

The Duke of Sussex gave an impassioned speech backing teenage activist Greta Thunberg today as he declared the world was in a state of 'emergency' and 'losing' the battle against climate change.

Harry arrived by the banks of Botswana's Chobe River in the north of the country this morning to take part in a tree-planting project - straining with dozens of people to get a huge sapling into the ground.

The Duke stressed saving the environment was a race against time, adding: 'Led by Greta, the world's children are striking.'

He said he could not understand why anyone - 'you, us, children, leaders' could ignore the facts from the last four decades.

Harry also spoke about how Bostwana offered him a place to escape to following the death of his mother, Diana, Princess of Wales.

He said: '15 years I've been coming here, it's a sense of escapism, a real sense of purpose ... I have some of my closest friends here over the years.

'I came here in 1997 or 1998 straight after my mum died, so it was a nice place to get away from it all. I feel deeply connected to this place and to Africa.'

...

The land was privately owned but has been pledged to the local community and Dr Chase's organisation will manage it with the aim of creating a thriving riverbank forest.

Harry clearly enjoyed the challenge of helping to create a new forest habitat on the banks of Botswana's Chobe River.

After decades of deforestation from locals gathering firewood and elephant activity, a conservation organisation working with locals is trying to create a nature and cultural park for the community.

The duke got stuck in trying to plant the 10-metre tall tree and worked with a group of men to push it upright before packing it with soil....

I’m getting tired of inbred, horse-faced, spoiled royals telling the rest of the world what to do. If we hadn’t already shot the freaking British 240 years ago, I’d be about ready to have a go at it right now.

I like Twain’s take on royalty:

I urged that kings were dangerous.
He said, then have cats.
He was sure that a royal family of cats would answer every purpose.
They would be as useful as any other royal family, they would know as much, they would have the same virtues and the same treacheries, the same disposition to get up shindies with other royal cats, they would be laughable vain and absurd and never know it, they would be wholly inexpensive, finally, they would have as sound a divine right as any other royal house...The worship of royalty being founded in unreason, these graceful and harmless cats would easily become as sacred as any other royalties, and indeed more so, because it would presently be noticed that they hanged nobody, beheaded nobody, imprisoned nobody, inflicted no cruelties or injustices of any sort, and so must be worthy of a deeper love and reverence than the customary human king, and would certainly get it.

The Elite Hypocritical Econazis tell us that we can't take long haul vacations to save the planet. Yet, The Elite Hypocritical Econazis like Prince Harry fly in private planes to tell us we can't fly on long trips.

Prince Harry resembles another royal loser. Hank the 8th. The original founder of his Queen for a Day routine, until that new queen lost her head.

I can already see Hairy-Ass wearing a turban while kneeling with his ass propped up in the air. These hypocrites are only loyal to money. They should name their next kid Mohammud, boy or girl.

The mother of Mozzi’s child is a hottie but he’s kissing up to dumpy Beatrice. Uh huh, a gold digger.

She has no money, really.

That was the problem with Andrew and his connection to Epstein. Epstein gave him money.

Prince Charles holds the purse strings and cut down on Andrew and his children.

Maybe gold digger for the connections but not her money.

Maybe the Queen will go along with donating £750,000,000 to some university in Europe that is studying climate change. :) It’s to save the planet, after all.

I hope Will and Kate will off one of theirs.
"Give one for the planet."
Could be a new campaign slogan for the very sane Euros.

His given name is already something of a nickname. Why does he need another one?
