- King Charles III has urged world leaders gathered in Dubai to make the COP28 climate summit a "turning point".
In a speech on the second day of the conference, the monarch warned that despite some progress "we remain so dreadfully far off track".
He called for "genuine transformational action", a day after the meeting opened with stark warnings on global warming.
The King said he has spent “a large proportion of my life trying to warn of the existential threats facing us over global warming, climate change and biodiversity loss”.
He said that despite this, decades later there is 30% more CO2 in the atmosphere now than back then, and almost more than 40% more methane.

It's certainly his favourite subject. But, our King runs 4 homes in England, 3 in Scotland and 1 in Northern Ireland.
Total hipocrite do as i say not what you want
Hundreds actually, boats, planes, cars
Not to mention he and others all flew there in their private jets. It's do as I say not as I do. They think we are all stupid. Yes raping the earth for resources is not new, but one energy option is not the answer. IMHO.
He doesn't though, the taxpayer runs them
I dont know why he's getting involved in this -he's making himself look even more silly.

Well I guess he could exercise his power and seize ownership of all the power companies, forcing them not to make record profits by increasing prices. And he could order the armed forces to reconquered former countries of the British Empire that are rich in natural resources.

Am I the only person who finds it insane when billionaires grill normal people about these issues? Gaslighting at its most cartoonish.
Cos it's all lies
Not at all - it's disgusting listening to these pampered and privileged billionaires and trillionaires preaching to us and robbing us at the same time. This overgrown spoiled brat is a perfect example of the parasite class.
And your opinion is worth more than a starving child's?
It's a criminal's Jerkoff. Getting away with a con gives them an orgasm!
I find it insane that anyone believes we can change the climate. Utterly absurd and a huge waste of money.
Man who travels by helicopter and has over 200 bedrooms in various palaces around the country whilst accepting millions of dollars in cash payments, stuffed into supermarket bags from oil shieks tells us how serious climate change is and how the people are going to have to make sacrifices. I feel a South Park episode coming.
Exactly
At least someone is. After living in Key West Florida for 28 years, it's pretty obvious anyway.
Plus gaining peoples assets who die without making a will, and have no family. Disgusting.
Yes - and the overgrown, pampered, sheltered, spoiled brat isn't even bothered by his own hypocrisy.
Keep whining😂
I came here on my private jet to preach about climate change. 😂
I don't believe you own a private jet.

It's not the jet that is the problem. They collect money for cleaning the lakes, rivers and ocean and don't clean the environment like they promised to. They don't remove chemicals from the food supply and water or provide adequate water treatment plants. All the world leaders, not just this British leader. Psalm 2
OOh an insy winsy small mind, nice to met ya.
Did you listen to Him
The king, the prime minister, and the chancellor of the exchequer all go to a conference and travel in separate planes. After all three of these champions of climate change end their weekend jolly they jump back on their choice of transport, each in his own plane and return to the jolly old uk and tell us all about "ZERO CARBON BLAH BLAH BLAH". 160 "dignitaries pitch up in their own form of transport, the local lads arrived by air conditioned camel all others flew in on ZERO CARBON planes.

Their hypocrisy defies belief. It's like Red Nose day when rich "celebrities" tell the rest of us to dig deep and give what you can.

You are correct sir
He blatantly lied,when he said CO2 had increased by 30%
A/ It's still a trace gas at 0.042% (420ppm)
B/ The warming effect trails off to almost zero past 300ppm, according to a science paper from Prof William Happer
C/ CO2 levels were dangerously low in 1870 at 280ppm. If that had continued to 150ppm, the plants would suffocate. We saved the planet by man's contribution.
No, he is correct. He's not saying that the proportion of CO2 has increased from 0.03% to 30.03%, he is saying the absolute proportion of CO2 has increased by 30% so from 0.03% to 0.04%

Sounds like a you problem 😂 😮!!
It is barely above freezing here today in Aberdeen. I have just been for a walk along the coastal path and with my binoculars I counted 115 offshore wind turbines. Not one of them was turning due to there being no wind. Apparently the answer is to have even more wind turbines which will stand absolutely still on the very days when we need more electricity. Someone really has not thought this through.

This is a political position and the King should not be engaged in politics. He is flouting the constitution. The problems and policy reaction to climate change is a matter for political debate which his government ministers are there to conduct in parliament. If he wants to promulgate climate change policies, he should give up the crown.
Thing is, most members of the public *are* very concerned of climate change. It’s not like it’s divisive rhetoric like other things.

Are you not even listening to David Attenborough either? Or to the many scientists warning us?
Charles used to say that his plants used to grow faster, if he talked to them, until he found out he was breathing CO2 onto them lol.
I have little doubt that he flew their by private jet.
Of course. You don’t pay tax on private jet fuel.
Why would this point be so necessary? So you listen to the speech? Are you jealous? What a bad human being you are? Or shit?
A 30% increase of carbon when it's only 0.04 % of the atmosphere is not a lot but most of it can be attributed to the dignitaries gathered in the once desolate fishing port of Dubai for the COP28.
Our overlords don't mind flying private jets to join climate summit nonsense talks.
You realize that this is a trick to get you to ignore what they are actually saying, right? Like Republicans saying 'they want to take your guns away' to stop people listening to those talking about sensible gun control laws in the US.
Would those 'mitigations' happen to be less people? Maybe a world population of 500 million by any chance?
Or why don’t we go back to being in thousands, so that we can live like hunter gatherers without need for agriculture…
It doesn't need to be less people, just reducing our reliance on fossil fuels would help massively and would be achievable. Relying entirely on a resource which rockets in price every time there is a war in the most unstable part of the world isn't working out too well. We need massive investment in nuclear, tidal, wind and solar all of which are cheaper and not subject to the same price fluctuations

@@hgbnkbggj2915 Many were placed there years ago in rural settings, in orchards and green fields. Some placed near 2miles of concrete runways for pilots to use. Then over time the towns and cities encroached around them. Whatever reading you get from them now is corrupted. So they should either be relocated or exclude them from the global average. The fact that they include this corrupted data shows what a con it is.

Extinction rates (1500-2009) peaked around 1900 at 50 per decade. Extinction rates have declined dramatically to around 4 to per decade in the 2000s. So the extinction rate is very low: 900 known lost species for 2.1 million known species in 500 years (IUCN), so from observations there are an average of slightly less than 2 species lost every year. Out of a known species total of over 2 million. That gives an annual percentage loss of less than 0.0001%. That's background extinction. At that frequency it will take over 930,000 years to reach 80% extinction of species experienced at the K-T boundary that saw the extinction of the dinosaurs. Of course, extinction is a natural part of the evolution of life on this planet with the average lifespan of a species thought to be about 1 million years (cf 930,000). It is estimated that 99.9% of all plant and animal species that have existed have gone extinct. It should also be noted that no families or genera have become extinct in the last 500 years. In fact marine diversity at the taxonomic level of families is the highest it has ever been in the Earth's long history (see Sepkoski Curve). In a review of 16,009 species, most populations (85%) did not show significant trends in abundance, and those that did were balanced between winners (8%) and losers (7%) (Dornelas et al, 2019). There have been only 9 species of continental birds and mammals confirmed extinct since 1500 (Loehle, 2011). No global marine animals have become extinct in the past 50 years (McCauley et, 2015 using IUCN data).
There is no climate crisis.
How dare you use facts
Basing climate problems on extinction rates over hundreds of years is a very inaccurate way of understanding this issue. For one thing, conservation efforts have ramped up considerably in recent times, and so many species are protected from full extinction. This is not to say that huge swathes of the natural world is not is trouble - it is.

To the critics: would you rather he didn't bother and let the world rot? I'm glad he cares enough to bother!
So you share his arrogance that humans can control an ever changing world climate we dont even fully understand, for an "emegency" based on their models that have already been proven wrong with real world results so far?
You're absolutely right. Most of the "comments" just cutting and pasting the same thing "private jet" or "its cold right now in England" over and over and over. UA-cam allows its "comments" to always be hijacked. Some are real but many are fake and no way that many can have verbatim "commentary." Getting off fossil fuels is a huge and difficult undertaking and it is being made more difficult by those heavily invested in it to no limits at any cost. They may fake "comment" about his private jet which the best propaganda knows how to use something that is partly true to tell a larger and far more insidious Lie of "do nothing" "say nothing" "just let all the countries of the world burn every summer"
Losing the support of many of his 'subjects'. Never had a seconds monetary worry or concern about everyday worries of his subjects.He really needs someone to enlighten him about everyone's concerns and worry.(if anyone dare).
That's not his job. That's the job of his government. And we were the ones who voted in the people who control it.

Just 96 months to save world, says Prince Charles 2009

1:12 " I pray with all my heart." and worship myself.
I vote YES to saving the planet.
I vote NO to green taxation.
So you're happy if other people save the planet for you, so long as you don't have to life a finger or change anything about the way you live?
@@SarthorS That's a cynical way to flip it. You could be even more cynical and question the motives of these involved. It's a meeting exclusive to millionaires and people motivated by money, wealth and property.
You could come to the conclusion as many have, they are simply motivated by greed and are simply finding creative ways to justify ever increasing taxation.
Which you certainly can back up looking at their previous patterns of behaviour.
The rich have benefitted the most by ransacking the earth for resources to sell. The Oil industry particularly.
Is it not right that they should shoulder a large/larger proportion of the cost of resolving the problem of our damaged environment.
Why is the solutions these rich people come up with always involve squeezing more cash from those already entrenched in poverty?
I do personally believe some of the science. Fore sure. But I don't believe green taxes provide an ethical way to resolve it.
@@SarthorS The systems in place did not think twice about entering my bank account to ceise money to recover 'Child Support' Debt. (Fictitious I might add)
I don't understand why they are not equally comfortable raiding the bank accounts of billionaires and millionaires to save the planet.
Raiding my bank account changed what I eat for my dinner. You go from eating meat and vegetables to tins of beans. If you raided the bank accounts of say Jeff Bessos or Bill Gates.
It would not change anything at all.
They are comfortable raiding the banks of people who have nothing.
But not people who have wealth beyond comparison. It is never a solution which is on the table.
Its a sociotal double standard.
@@paulgibbons2320 I don't necessarily disagree with you, and I'm not being cynical. I just tend to see the flaws or falsehoods in things people say. If they have a good enough answer to the problems I point out, backed by real evidence, then I won't help but agree with them.
This rarely happens though. I mean, it's the internet. Most people just post the first thing to enter their head, or worthless talking points, without giving it any actual thought. Your reply is, at least, coherent.
Those with wealth and power have always controlled the world, and even with democracy, it's still true to a great extent. I do agree with you that these sort of people are the ones most responsible for the climate problem. But I also know that your and my opinion are utterly worthless and will have absolutely zero impact on the course of events. But at least we are not turning people against the cause like the Just Stop Oil idiots.
@@SarthorS seeing the flaws an falsehoods in what people say is A very good discription of cynicism lol 😂 but I don't consider it a negative discriptor. Don't worry I'm happy for you to be cynical.
Most people don't have the time or inclination to fully express themselves online.They see it as a waste of time. This probably makes them smarter than people who do waste time on line.
That's not an indicator that their thoughts on an issue are not well founded. Think more kindly of people.
The environmentalists of just stop oil are funded by the oil company's and are been used to make a mockery of the issue.
Don't underestimate what a dirty game that is been played out in the media. The just stop oil protesters have the right message. But dark forces won't let you support it.
Be kinder to people. 👍
No wonder his mum never wanted to hand over the crown
Walk back home then, instead of jetting it. Or is that different somehow?
Trust God. Sovereign king of Kings, Lord of Lords 🙏
Why don't you ask God to fix climate change, then?
God is the climate change force. JUDGEMEnt shall avail no man. Leave the colonized lands of the indigenous and possibly restore normal climate conditions. God granted the land in-deed. That’s what the scriptures say and will fulfill.

Says the richest person in Britain with the biggest houses. Absolute hypocrisy
The King has said well.
@jamesfrearson9630 - Who is also unaware that he has a carbon footprint bigger than most people by coming to this conference on a flipping PRIVATE JET. But hey, if you’re part of a once imperial, land-grabbing colonialist monarchy that gives us working and middle class the illusion that they’re good but don’t pay tax, have NO idea what it’s like to pay rent or work a normal job to get by..
The biggest hypocrite
Just think if this man campaigned for honest labeling on foods we could all choose if we wish to buy meat raised in Britain or failing that the nearest suppliers to save on transportation pollution. If we are not given this information how can we shop responsibly. Also how about campaigning for ready meals containing products such as mash potatoes and preformed chips which have had the potato starch removed for its usefulness in forming other meat products to make those apparently oh so nice so called deli slice thinner than a piece of paper. Start there Mr. Windsor with honest food labelling. Stop the rise in Value extended products especially those which contain cellulose/added gluten/potato starch etc.
Make children's menus in restaurants etc. contain real foods and not low grade mechanically recovered products. Children deserve a better start in life than this chemically and mechanically manipulated food.
Cleaning emissions and making use of wool and other natural fibres would be a better use of money. Plastic clothing is cheap but it sure ain't healthy.
The planet is not at risk, it will be here long after it gets rid of us as a scourge, it is us at risk and the science community have destroyed the food chain right round the world. The science community needs to be reigned in and made to work on improving our food production methods and not for the profits of Big Pharma.
And for goodness sake Mr. Windsor a Zero Carbon future would be the death of us all as the planet would not be able to support life.
Brilliant totally agree 👍
Why not send your comments to The Rt Hon Mark Spencer MP, the Minister of State (Minister for Food, Farming and Fisheries)?
Your sentiments are (generally) admirable, but you are lambasting the wrong man!
Wishing you well with your own personal efforts to save the planet - litterpicking, recycling, upcycling, thrift shop donations, horticulture, fuel limitation, beach clean ups, hazardous chemical control, supporting local shops and reaping natures harvest etc...
We ALL have a part to play.
I totally agree we should all do our part, But of course we all like to talk about, it but none like to actually check out these things for themselves and then act accordingly. One visit to my local authority land infill/re-cycling plant on their open day was very informative not for what was said but more for what was not said, the actual layout and signs used for vehicles appeared to have their own story to tell. It was a very interesting couple of hours well spent.
I find it interesting that you think that complaining to the Min of Ag would be correct, or an effect way to go to try and get waste products getting in preformed and mechanically recovered foods removed. This is the dept which is actively promoting the use of extended value products in general and the modern more they tell you labelling the more vague is the actual labelling of food. That wonderful use of cellulose in foods, which due to the properties of dehydration is always listed on the labelling at its dry weight and appears to be only a small part of the contents, where as once you rehydrate it to its normal moist state it is the no 1 ingredient. Needless to say they never state what the cellulose or it's origins are.
It is the min of ag that supervises and allows the majority of imported meat to be sold under the false labeling of British meat. Encourages fish farming which is one of the most horrendous industries ever invented.
All this and more to avoid farming in a sustainable way in keeping with nature, We build cars but do not include air cleaning filters in the design of the cars to clean the air as the car is being driven. Why would we after all we buy cars for speed and looks and not the ability to clean up the air they are polluting.
We know we need to clean up after ourselves but currently it is the same people who are responsible for the dirty air who also control the use and applications of the laws.
So who does that leave? Who is above such matters and can be considered anything like neutral enough to have a real impact on modern day pollution rackets and believe you me much of it is a racket with lots of grants and others monies available to those who wish to manipulate the system.
Throwing money at these industries will not solve the problems of pollution. It is a moral issue and can only start to get somewhere when we start to consider it a moral problem. Companies which used public water need to be obligated to return clean water back into the system after they have cleaned it up. A pulp mill which does not clean up the water it uses is just abusing lax laws which allow it to just pour it waste into the waterways and left to the tax payer to pay the costs of a cleanup after a disaster or whatever which is about the only time clean ups really seem to happen.
Meanwhile the increase in polluted foods is ever growing and humans from the poorer communities pay the price, the rise in coeliac disease which is almost at plague levels, auto immune diseases and other areas which are very very related to the modern food productions methods. In effect we are using poor people and the undereducated who are easy to influence through advertising as recycling plants. The lungs of pedestrians which currently are the only ongoing air cleaning filters of the the air in many major towns and cities.
There is more to the pollution problems than plastic and fossil fuels - first we need to work out what pollution is - And I ain't never seen a good all encompassing definition of what constitutes modern day pollution. Until we can work out the difference between pollution and by products we are on a none starter,
