Prince Charles says climate change is the 'wolf at the door'
The Prince of Wales has described climate change as the “wolf at the door” as he urged world leaders to take immediate steps to combat what he sees as the biggest threat to the future of the planet.
In his bleakest comments on the subject to date, the Prince says action on climate change “must be urgently scaled up, and scaled up now”.
The Prince’s warning, which will be interpreted as a direct message to Theresa May and Donald Trump among others, is contained in the foreword to a new Ladybird book he has co-authored, called Climate Change, which is published next week.
Intriguingly, Mr Trump has said he plans to meet the Prince “in the coming weeks”, which would give the Prince an early chance to press home his point to the man who will be inaugurated as US President on Friday.
Mr Trump is a climate change denier, who has said that “the concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make US manufacturing non-competitive”.
