The Syrian crisis that is spreading terror across the world was prompted by climate change, the Prince of Wales has claimed.
In a controversial interview, Charles argued that the cumulative effect of global warming was ‘one of the major reasons for this horror in Syria’.
He warned that a decades-long failure to tackle climate change inevitably meant ‘greater conflict over scarce resources’ and that even the Pentagon had realised the root cause of war and terrorism was ‘what we’re doing to our environment’.
His outspoken comments were made in an interview with Sky News recorded before the Paris attacks.
Charles claimed the current crisis resulted from five or six years of drought in Syria, which forced vast numbers to leave their homeland.
His remarks follow US research in which scientists said that climate change was a key factor in the 2011 uprising that sparked the civil war in which 250,000 Syrians have died and more than 11million have been forced from their homes.
Members of Barack Obama’s administration echoed the warning, as did singer Charlotte Church, who faced public ridicule after giving her views on BBC1’s Question Time last month.
Speaking ahead of the UN climate conference in Paris, Charles warned the globe was heading towards ‘catastrophes and chaos’ and without urgent action ‘life will become very, very complicated indeed’ and the world’s problems far worse.
‘We are now facing a real possibility of nature’s bank going bust,’ he said.

Two peas in a pod.
Charlie...is a bad genetic mutation...
Pass It On.
Guess you can be royalty & still be very wrong.
No fixin’ bloody stupid.
Liberalism really is a mental disease.
Muslims have been beheading people and stoning rape victims to death way before “climate change”. The only thing different is that they are strapping on suicide vests and blowing up themselves and others. Again, not due to “climate change”.
Al Gore is now in the PRIVY Chamber of Prince Charles? Yuck.
Tends to happen to people who are the product of inbreeding.
If Prince Charles was not a member of the Royal family, much like that other privileged US royalty, the late Teddy Kennedy, he would be sleeping outside on a heated grate.
Nonsense
Looks like the nut hatch should be where these two assclowns should reside. The dumbass prince already had money but algore, he’s a self made gazillionaire(kinda). Raving lunatic and bloody bonkers. Lucky they never had kids together.
Prince Charles says global warming started in the 7th century.
the current CIA director explicitly declared that global warming is a major driver of [Muslim] unrest and terrorism
a senior admiral of Pacific naval force said global warming is the biggest strategic threat in the Pacific
people who matter believe this crap.
Well done.
Here’s your guy. I’d say Apple must be on board with this crap.
