Dam - missed it.

I'm not sure, but I think ITV now has an "iplayer" copy - he didn't say anything particularly new, but really pushed the "we've got 100 months" thing, and made it plain how passionate he is - and how we should learn to work with nature, instead of trying to subjugate it.
Good bloke!

Haven't tried ITV iplayer yet but was interested to find this  here, whilst catching up on the news.

Quote:
During his recent 10-day tour of South America, the Prince has taken on a greater workload for the British government on the foreign stage, mainly because his views on climate change now chime with those of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO).

"Somebody asked me the other day if I felt vindicated by all this [his climate change warnings]. I said 'What's the use, really, if you end up being vindicated by the fact that we are now facing increasing challenges?'

"We are somehow helping to initiate chaos, confusion and dissonance, when the whole of nature is involved with harmony and balance. We have to start dancing in tune to the rhythm again – if you see what I mean."



Monarchy has never made much sense to me - but this does.
