Prince Charles has evidently lost his patience with climate change denial. The BBC reports that while speaking at a policy meeting in Brussels, he called out climate skeptics as having a “corrosive” impact on public opinion. He said that such skeptics were denying a vast body of evidence, and that they were gambling with our future — “I would ask how these people are going to face their grandchildren and admit to them they failed their future,” he said.

Lord Rogers is not alone in wishing Prince Charles would stick to ribbon cutting, but the fact is, he has got the pulse of the times and he gets the issues, as in his recent statement in favour of sustainable homes within “dense, mixed-use, walkable developments”.
