"Why do I get the sense all these royal elites are trying hard to keep THEIR coffers full via these Climate Change theatrics they all seem to have a role in!"

The very definition of being an aristocratic noble family is the need for feudal serfs to serve them.

The Queen, Princes Charles, William & Harry are all in on it. and they have a conflict of interest, above and beyond the fact the Royal Family is not supposed to interfer in politics:

13 Oct 2019: UK Daily Mail: Queen’s £100m a year windfall: Green energy earnings of the Royal Family are set to be boosted by an auction for the biggest offshore windpower development in the world
If Royals were still paid by the long-established Civil List, they would not benefit
But they now get 25 per cent of profits from Crown Estate after a deal in 2012
Estate owns seabed within Britain’s territorial waters that extend almost 14 miles
By IAN GALLAGHER
The Queen and Prince Charles could make more than £100million a year from the huge expansion of offshore windfarms – thanks to a change in the way that the monarchy is funded.

The green energy earnings of the Royal Family are being significantly boosted by an auction, which formally began last week, for the biggest offshore windpower development in the world.

If they were still being paid by the long-established Civil List, the Royals would not have benefited.

However, the then Chancellor George Osborne replaced it in 2012 with the Sovereign Grant...

There is NO climate crisis.

If there was, you could not do a thing about it.

Confiscating every last dollar of income worldwide and directing it to “climate” would not affect the global temperature one degree or sea levels by one inch.

No...

Her money comes from the Crown Estate. She is the largest landowner in England i think and it's exempt from tax.

The Queen pays tax on all her private income - income tax and capital gains tax.
