Isn't it marvellous that Prince Harry has sought to share his thoughts on climate change, by giving a "barefoot speech" No me neither in front of a load of grandstanding c'lebs worthy and notable high profile people in Sicily. As a lesser mortal I'm so grateful that these up their own backside individuals, amazingly aware and magnanimous folk are there to give us guidance on looking after our planet. I'm just wondering about the 114 private jets parked up on a runway somewhere in though Sicily Oh never mind minor detail!
Charles has been preaching an eco message for years the difference is he talks to people with more than half a brain. Harry talks to gilded celebs half of whom pitched up for the photo opportunities. I mean Noel Gallagher, Sacha Baron Cohen? And Bono goes to the opening of any envelope.
There was a programme on BBC Wales recently about Charles being P of Wales for 50 years . They showed a film of him expressing concerns about plastic, he was in his late 20’s
It's a Google conference, organised by the internet giant, you know, one of those that avoids paying tax which could help governments solve environmental problems.
They choose a topic each year; it's very secretive and only certain celebs are invited.
Did Obama refuse to go or not? It's not very clear. I do hope that he refused to be part of this ostentatious, self-congratulatory shindig.
The carbon footprint of the likes of google is HUGE.
Charles was an environmentalist long before everyone thought they were. Di was a manipulative piece of work who portrayed herself as the only "caring" royal when the caneras were rolling and was hell bent on discrediting and making a mockery of Charles in every way she could...
.... none the less Charles always did a lot of low profile low "glam/glory" work on the topic and is actually IMO one of the most principled royals.
varian and miss out on a freebie, being driven round in Maseratis? Presumably they have all had to take 'their people' with them too, from security to hairdressers, advisers to gofers.
