Prince Charles calls for globalswift action on climate change

LONDON: The UK’s Prince Charles has warned the climate crisis will “dwarf” the impact of the coronavirus pandemic and urged that “swift and immediate action” was needed, the media reported. The remarks were part of a recorded message slated to be played at the virtual opening of Climate Week on Monday, the BBC reported. In his message, recorded from Birkhall in the grounds of Balmoral, the Prince of Wales said: “Without swift and immediate action, at an unprecedented pace and scale, we will miss the window of opportunity to ‘reset’ for… a more sustainable and inclusive future. “(The environmental) crisis has been with us for far too many years – decried, denigrated and denied. “It is now rapidly becoming a comprehensive catastrophe that will dwarf the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.”
