Good one. Many years ago Prince Charles visited the area where I live, an old steel-making region. The mills had just shut down, and thousands of people were out of work. Charles was invited to tour the region, and share with us his ideas for revitalizing the area.
Plant flowers where the mills used to be, the great man said.
I never forgot that. Both of my brothers were standing in an unemployment line, along with so many other people. It was kinda like that Billy Joel song ‘Allentown’. And that royal ass said that planting flowers would solve everything.
While I’m at it, here’s the song:
This sounds like a Monty Python sketch.
the only thing this guy accomplished in life is he had the luck of being the first born of the queen and he had nothing to do with that.. what a phony useless human being..
Hey Greta
Just look at your pansy wansy buddy’s lifestyle
He’s just talk
HOW DARE YOU take him seriously?
You gullible useless idiot
I believe she might have Asperger’s Syndrome.
She has some OCD and depressive issues is my understanding.
She’s also vegan, and hasn’t developed “normally”.
She’s 18, but is built like an 11 y/o.
“Britain’s Prince Charles says he shares the concerns of Greta Thunberg and other environmental activists that world leaders “just talk” about climate change ... “
Well .. all Greta does is talk about climate change. :-) Same with Algore and the rest of them. Nobody can change the climate.
I'm not too familiar with the Royal Family so anyone from the UK, please correct anything I get wrong:
Isn't that the same Prince Charles who Prince Harry indicates is a vile racist? Or does Prince Harry instead mean to call his brother, Prince William, the raging racist? (It seems the Queen is totally in the clear because Megan said the Queen kindly put a blanket on her lap and gave her a friendly pat.)
So based solely on what Prince Harry & Princess Megan have said, I guess we shouldn't listen to anything the Royal Family says because according to them, the whole Royal Family (except the Queen) is filled with disgusting systemic racism against black people.
All those groups of Global Minded Organizations and Institutions are in play, as are their representatives, and will depend on who can generate the largest revenue flows and bring to the table as to what positions and power they will weld in the New World Order once it comes together as planned.
Much of their Agenda is within the Package Pelosi is trying so hard to pass.....her focus is on getting that done as it will be further steps taken in those Global Ambitions they want to bring about. While at the same time they undo or destroy what Trump had built for the American people.
Queen Elizabeth will live to 200 if that is what it takes to outlive Charles
Dingbat to dingbat.
Brings back memories of a photo of a small kid about two or three years old, in shorts grinning at his mommy the Queen.
Helikes the young ones. Even a butterface retard.
She seems to fly around often on polluting airplanes to go to meetings to do her talking. Why haven’t the eco-warriors switched to Zoom meetings only by now? Can’t give up their fancy boondoggles in Milan, New York, Davos and Rio de Janeiro?
I’m sure he meant edible flowers. He’s caring like that. I heard he also advised people to eat cake if they didn’t have any bread.
Her 15 minutes were up a year ago. Tell her to go bay at the solar storm today, outside.
If stupidity were fatal, he'd have died when the egg split.
Turn off the heat charlee. You’ll feel even more superior to the peons.
The guy is a moron.

Disclaimer: I am a skeptic of the theories advanced by the IPCC, and believe that the human signal is only part of a more complex set of natural variations, meaning that their forecasts for large scale warming later this century could be entirely wrong.
But having said that, if we accepted their reasoning and thought these large increases might be about to set in, we can see that it is already too late to avoid them. There is no way that any economic or social changes made today will have enough impact on the current levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to avoid the outcome they suggest is already in the works.
The second problem with their position is that no governments can or will go to the extremes of zero carbon emissions even by 2050 let alone by 2030, so that makes it even more likely that carbon dioxide levels will do no better than levelling off at slightly higher values than we have now.
So therefore logic would tell you that the best strategy is mitigation, not prevention. If we are to be stuck with the sea level rise implied by large-scale arctic land ice melt, then we should be preparing for that today. Much of the preparation would be planning rather than action, we probably should plan for this even if we don’t take it as seriously as the IPCC, just as we should plan for a Carrington level solar flare or an asteroid strike. Planning costs relatively little but provides a framework for action if the event either happens or becomes inevitable.
With sea level rises, a full meltdown of Greenland and other land ice in the arctic would produce a rise of about 20 feet. But this would not all happen in one day or even in one decade. It would likely take five or six decades, the worst I could imagine happening would be a steady 2-3 foot rise for each decade after 2030 to a finish around 2100. That gives governments seventy years to accomplish a gradual response, which in most cases will be to move vital infrastructure to safer locations, and to move human populations once seawall protection is ruled out. That will have a considerable impact but would not be a catastrophe of extinction proportions by any means. Even if the seas rose instantly and wiped everything out in that first twenty feet, the human race would easily survive and adapt.
As to all the rest of the IPCC alarmist rhetoric, none of that is real. A warmer climate will not necessarily mean more intense storms. If it warms up to the extent they fear, these transient very cold events like last year’s Texas freeze will stop happening altogether, the variability of climates will shift to higher values at both ends of the spectrum. We can probably stand the slightly higher extreme warmth values because a lot of the increase is going to be in overnight lows rather than daytime highs. There would not necessarily be more hurricanes and they would not necessarily be more severe. Etc etc.
So all of the chicken little act is pointless, all we should really be doing at this point is to plan for the “what if” scenario of gradual sea level rise, and wait and see what actually happens. I don’t think there is anything we could do now that would change the outcome. And personally I don’t think it will happen, we could lose 10-20 per cent of northern ice which might raise sea levels 3-6 feet, and that would need some adjustments, but thinking of most coastlines, 3-6 feet is often just a part of the barrier between beach and land development. Some coastal areas could easily absorb a small rise on that scale. And perhaps future technology of mass desalination could reduce the total volume of global ocean water content too.
