We Just Passed The Deadline Prince Charles Set For The World Collapsing
Charles must be the English version of our Prince Gore....
Quote:Prince Charles warned in July 2009 humanity had only 96 months to save the world from “irretrievable climate and ecosystem collapse, and all that goes with it” caused by unchecked consumerism.
Saturday marked the 96-month deadline the Prince of Wales set, meaning that, according to Charles, humanity has run out of time to avert “an environmental crisis.”
“We face the dual challenges of a world view and an economic system that seem to have enormous shortcomings, together with an environmental crisis – including that of climate change – which threatens to engulf us all,” Charles said in a 2009 speech at St. James’s Palace in London.
Charles is a fervent environmentalist and critic of capitalism, which he sees as “an enormous cost to the Earth.” In his 2009 speech, Charles claimed humanity needed “coherent financial incentives and disincentives” to to avoid environmental catastrophe.
The prince has argued global warming has already impacted society, claiming man-made warming was the “root cause” of the Syrian civil war. He also backed the Paris agreement on climate change that U.S. President Donald Trump vowed to exit in the coming years.

We're all one super-volcano (yellowstone) away from essentially nuclear winter. Climate change and global warming will seem like foolish thought experiments then.

Was Charles involved with Diana's murder conspiracy?

It's easy to be critical of capitalism when you've never had to work a day in your life and can live in the lap of luxury off the backs of British subjects.
The damn fool wouldn't last a week in the real word.

Yep, just a bit.
No wonder his mother doesn't want to abdicate or die she knows he's bad news and not well in the head. I won't think bad of her anymore, she's doing the English people a service by staying queen.
