Britain's King Charles said on Friday the world was "dreadfully far off track" on addressing climate change and that the global economy would be in peril unless the environment was rapidly repaired.

    Cool. The man is worth billions. How much of the royal families funds is he devoting to get this done?

    Oh, he is just making speeches and has no plans to do anything himself?

    I’m shocked, shocked I tell you.

        I know about his history of talking about change, that is all that happens at the Cop talk fests.

        I was asking if he was willing to spend anything to make the change happen.

        All we ever here is the rich and powerful, the ones who could do something, talk endlessly about how change is necessary.

        Then they all climb back into their private jets and thank themselves for talking about doing something…again.

          Yeah, it’s endlessly frustrating.

          Though what can they do? Decline big oil and build solar?
