I don’t have to be given a caricature. It’s plain from his own mouth that he’s a complete captive of the global warming scam and a total hypocrite - living the high life while advocating abstinence for everyone else.

Well meaning or not, he’s a blight on society.

I don't agree with him on 'climate change' and it's the one issue that he really does have a position on the left rather than the right - but that's part of the reason why it's the position the media keeps presenting over and over again, while ignoring everything else he does. But he's no hypocrite. He's invested millions of his own money in sustainable agriculture and making sure his own properties are as energy efficient as is reasonably possible - something that is not easy to do given the nature of some of those properties (he had to fight the Westminster City council to be allowed to put solar panels on his London residence, Clarence House, and in the end could only install them in a location that isn't visible from the ground). His personal cars run on biodiesel and bioethanol (as far as I know, he hasn't managed to get the official cars changed over yet). This is all done at his own expense - hardly a hardship for somebody as wealthy as he is, but nonetheless, he's spending the money when he probably could get it billed to somebody else in a lot of cases.

He certainly does live the high life in a lot of ways - but he doesn't suggest anybody else shouldn't. Just that even if you are, there are still things that can be done.
