England’s Answer to Al Gore
HRH Prince Charles
“The lives of billions of people depend on your response (to global climate change) and none of us will be forgiven by our children and grandchildren if we falter and fail”
Prince Charles
The BBC Online News has a very interesting article about the Prince of Wales and how he has taken on global climate change. I find myself liking this guy more and more.
From the BBC:
Prince Charles has described the fight against global climate change as a war, with the Doomsday Clock “ticking ever closer to midnight”.
In a speech to the European Parliament, he called for a solution to the loss of the world’s tropical forests, to make them worth more alive than dead.
He said the crisis required the biggest public-private partnership ever seen.
The prince praised the European Commission’s recent proposals to reduce greenhouse gases by 20% by 2020.
“Determined and principled leadership has never been more needed,” he said. “Surely, this is just the moment in history for which the European Union was created?”
