Prince Charles demanded global green taxes as part of a radical push to tackle climate change in a seminal speech at Davos today. The Prince of Wales met Greta Thunberg at the Word Economic Forum after flying in to Switzerland on a private jet—but did not hold talks with Donald Trump. Charles even sounded like the 17-year-old Swedish activist as he asked VIPs: 'Do we want to go down in history as the people who didn't do anything to bring the world back from the brink? The only limit is our willingness to act and the time to act is now'.

While William and Kate are a little bit on the nutsy lie-beral side on some issues, they come off as sane and normal compared to Charles!!! He long ago drank the lie-beral Kool-Ade and says and does stupid things on a regular basis.
The Queen needs to name William as the new King when she retires before Charles destroys the monarchy and William and Kate never get a chance!!!!!

I really don't mind a tax if it goes to pay for changing things that really affect us. Since the science is settled, and we know how weather works and what affects it, it should be easy to use tax dollars to stop droughts, hurricanes, tornados, torrential rains, too much sun, not enough sun and so many other things. After all, the science is settled, we know how to affect weather and we should for the women and children.

Only if I get to control the thermostat in my town. I suppose it would be some bureaucrat though... Probably a woman, who is always cold, like my wife!

It's a good thing the royals in Britain no longer have any real power, otherwise those folks would be doomed. They are already getting overrun with mooselimbs, so they have enough problems.

Our stable genius businessman President versus the unelected idiot Prince. Not even a contest.
I really hope that Elizabeth outlasts Charles.

My God. They have been imbeciles for generations. This fool admitted, mind you, lying on the floor of his house to overhear without being seen, the comments of tourists at his house. Perhaps 'fool' is a little understated - moron.

I am not sure why people think Charles is so unusual. The Queen HERSELF mentions how proud she is that the younger Royals are tackling the highly important issue of climate control. Yoo-hoo - Charles AND good old William who also champions and supports all the lgbtq whatever leaders are both on the same side. You will never catch either man extolling the obvious virtues of nor supporting Israel either. Without a strong Christian revival, its onward spreading islamization. London is pretty much lost and the declared plan is to make it the Islamic capitol of Europe.
The family is fighting to remain relevant probably harder than we have ever seen. As everyone against islamization has been legally silenced, the elephant in the room continues to destroy England.

You'd think Prince Charles would be happy at 72 years of age, to step aside in favor of the next generation and William was schooled in the process. Along with all the honors that attend Prince Charles, the Duke of Wales (the coronet, a ring, a rod, a sword, a girdle, and a mantle) he once wished for one thing more (to be the personal feminine product of his beloved Camilla.) As Ben Johnson in 1616 wrote to celebrate then Duke of Wales, This Charles should just enjoy his ''Pleasure Reconciled to Virtue.''

The Royal Family is very much like a pride of lions in a zoo, They may inhabit a very gilded cage, but a cage it is nonetheless. Under constant scrutiny, they exist as exhibits in a virtual museum, reminding us of the role they played in their distant past as monarchs but today in name only. And Prince Charles, old fool that he is, hasn't a clue about the environment or the forces at work in this radical climate movement, being that he lives in a bubble.

After his daughter in law left town,Charles took over the spot of the most self absorbed member of the family. He's been waiting all his life to become King. He wont step aside. He also rejects one of his titles to be,.........." Defender of the Faith ( Church of England, Anglican) , in favor of " defender of faith" which includes islam.

The Queen is the only one with a brain in that family. Number 11 is right on! Inbreeding is taking its toll.
And to Prince Charles—Don’t worry about our climate inactions recorded for history. Just 12 years til the earth is gone. Nobody around to read about our inaction. No more history!!

#4, I'm right there with you. In fact I'm perplexed why any woman wouldn't be in favor of turning up the average global temperature a few degrees. God knows they're always petitioning HR to do that to every building they work in...even though every single one of them already has one of those small space heaters under their desks and cranked up to max temp. But hey, I guess some of them do indeed need their small spaces heated up.

Did some research... If you put the water and air in spheres, The water sphere measures 1390 kilometres across and has a volume of 1.4 billion cubic kilometres. This includes all the water in the oceans, seas, ice caps, lakes and rivers as well as ground water, and that in the atmosphere. The air sphere measures 1999 kilometres across ...to even think we, since inception of the modern industrial age (but then you don't know about the cooking/camp fires of the aborigines), could put enough pollutants into these spheres to hurt them, is utter liberal nonsense....there is no man made global warming, i.e. wealth re-distribution scheme.....it's Mother Nature snowflakes....get over it....

I keep reading that the Royals are not allowed to voice political views. Charles is over stepping his bounds when he starts pushing Climate Warming. He needs to step down and let William take over.

If the US was stupid enough to agree to this demand and under Obama or Hillary it was going to happen, we would be contributing over 50% of the total tax and the euroweenie countries would be using the money to correct their muzzie invasion mistakes and pushing the UN to come in and take our firearms. African dictators would be buying a whole new fleet of limousines and private planes and China would keep on doing whatever it is they do. Climate change is not a correctable problem, it's not a problem at all, it's an earthly natural occurrence.

King-in-waiting Charles III is clearly not putting Britain First. The British public will have to pay Greta's Green Taxes, which will then be shipped off to myriad kleptocrats around the globe. It's "for the children" don't you know.

Who knew Prince Charles was an economic genius.
New world economy to tackle climate change? Really? That reads as confiscating the world's wealth in the name of saving the planet. Somebody tell Prince Charles THE WORLD IS NOT DYING AND DOES NOT NEED SAVING!
What exactly are you going to do with all that wealth? This is a giant con.

And exactly WHO assesses and collects these global green taxes Prince Idiot? And who decides how these funds are distributed?
I plan on specifically NOT paying my global green taxes, but will continue to spend my money on petroleum powered cars, aircraft, motorcycles, natural gas home heating, coal fired electricity and jet aircraft tickets.
You might remember that you Brits tried to tax us Americans back in 1770s. Do your remember how that worked out? We are far better armed nationally, and individually, now days. Don't send over your tax man.

I just read that Spain has had heavy snow on the eastern side near its coast the past few days. I also read that Spain's socialist government is going to impose severe rules on carbon emissions to prevent global warming. Go figure.

Who can control the wind?Or how the earth rotates around the sun? Who decides what is the ideal climate?
PDT's idea is to plant trees. Yep, a solution! or at least a partial solution. And without the climate change 'tax' grab.

The fact that HRH Dumbo met with Gretl von Thornbush legitimizes her as a public figure and he's too stupid to see that. QE2 should find some way to skip over Dumbo and go directly to Wills.

When in a hole, keep digging. Reading the tea leaves, maybe the Brits will end the monarchy and go with a republic after Queen Elizabeth passes on. The Markles and Prince Pedo laid the groundwork already; sell everything off and use that to fund Climate Change. Jetset Charles couldn't possibly object to that.
