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".

Thumbs up

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.

Has anyone signed up on the website I did but there's one thing I don't get where do our SOS messages go? I've seen a few on the whole "Your SOS messages" section but most of them are from celebrities. Are the ones we send going to be used in December in Copenhagen?

Quite possible. I do hope that these are read by the Prince before being sent somewhere.

You are correct, they are to be presented in December.
Quote:
The Rainforest SOS message takes the form of the supporter's name and an optional short message to show their support for emergency action for the rainforests. These messages will demonstrate the level of public support for
action to be taken to stop rainforest destruction, as well as display the growing awareness of deforestation's link to climate change. Such a message is vital ahead of global climate change negotiations in Copenhagen this December.


Many of the world's biggest online portals and well-known brands are coming together to support the PRP's Rainforest SOS campaign. Partners will be sending information about the campaign and the sign up request through their customer and employee channels via dedicated homepages, email signatures, customer communications, website content and donated banner space.


The launch of the Rainforest SOS campaign will for the first time see organizations from all sectors join together to support this vitally important cause. From media leaders such as Turner AOL, Yahoo, Google, MySpace, Facebook, Treehugger and Greenopolis to leading companies including Boeing, Virgin, Dell, and McDonald's to NGOs such as Conservation International, NRDC and The Rainforest Action Network - these organizations are all uniting to help send the biggest SOS for the rainforests.

Comedian Rory Bremner has added a comedy element to Prince Charles’ campaign to save rainforests by impersonating its celebrity advocates


Bremner has been taking the proverbial out of David Attenborough, Billy Connolly and Antony Worral Thompson all in the name of upping awareness for the Prince’s Rainforest Project’s SOS campaign.

I admire Prince Charles for throwing himself into such a good cause. I wonder do all those people ravaging the planet have space ships on standby because if nothing changes they're gonna need them. I sent out my SOS for Copenhagen
