Wales Oil

Prince Charles has a habit of taking on too many marginal causes but some stuff has invariably stuck to the wall. At the "Peak Oil, Climate Change, and Business Action" meeting in San Francisco, he keynoted:

"We simply can't go on as we are," Prince Charles said to the select audience, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. He cited statistics and stories about global warming and oil depletion, contending, "Somehow we have to find the courage to reassert the once commonplace belief that human beings have a duty to act as the stewards of creation."
