Prince Charles to work with Norway to save forests

Thu Dec 27, 2007 11:38am GMT

OSLO (Reuters) - Prince Charles has offered to team up with Norway in projects to save forests around the world, Norwegian officials said on Thursday.

The Prince of Wales's offer to Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg followed Norway's announcement earlier this month that it aimed to provide about 3 billion crowns (273 million pounds) per year to prevent deforestation in developing countries.

Charles, who has said saving the world's rainforests is key to combating global warming, sent a letter to Stoltenberg suggesting that his Rainforests Project send representatives to Norway to discuss ways to cooperate, a spokesman at the prime minister's office said.

Britain's Prince Charles, called on Thursday for a global fund to preserve tropical rainforests from destruction.
"In the simplest of terms, we have to find a way to make the forests worth more alive than dead," the heir to the British throne told the European Parliament in an address.

The Green Prince
February 18

"Huge sums" of money, Prince Charles told the European Parliament Thursday, are required to keep the developing world from killing off the rainforests and exacerbating global warming. The heir to the British throne laid out what amounts to a simple (and familiar) formula: Politicians will set some rules and the rest of us will foot the bill.

The Prince of Wales's Rainforests Project

True to Prince Charles's reputation as an environmentalist, he's been getting involved in the ongoing debate about saving the world's remaining rainforests by trying to make them more commercially viable as standing forests than as piles of logs.

He has a website on the topic which is well worth a look.

Prince's Rainforests Project
 
Here's a link to a BBC article talking about an interview he did for them:

"The halting of logging in the world's rainforests is the single greatest solution to climate change, Prince Charles has said.

He called for a mechanism to be devised to pay poor countries to prevent them felling their rainforests.
The prince told the BBC that the forests provided the earth's "air conditioning system". He said it was "crazy" the rainforests were worth more "dead than alive" to some of the world's poorest people."

Full article here, along with the audio version of the interview:

Britain's Prince Charles called on the world Wednesday to act with a "sense of wartime urgency" to protect the rainforests, warning they were "umbilically connected" to the phenomenon of climate change

Prince Charles calls for 'wartime' effort against deforestation - Yahoo! News

That's what I really like about Charles; if he thinks it urgent - he tells it, regardless how popular the view is.
And on this point, I couldn't agree more. If his calculations are right, and I have no reasons to believe otherwise, then the matter does have "wartime urgency".
 
This IMO, is a great way to bring awareness to young children. They after all, have got to try to live with the terrible damage we have done to the environment.

The Prince’s Rainforests Project is inviting nursery and primary school-aged children to design its Christmas Card for 2008.
Challenging the imagination and creativity of young children, this can be done as a lesson, an activity day or a homework project
