One good side to Prince Charles

Prince of Wales Charles, somewhat overshadowed by his son and his marriage to the slender-but-lovely Kate, and also somewhat smudged reputation-wise by the marriage and divorce and loss of the glowing Diana, and also burdened with the less-than-glorious Camilla ------- and also not blessed with any particular handsomeness:

still has got something going for him, namely a concern about the environment. And when the in-particular of that concern involves overfishing, well, I'll cut the Prince some slack.

Prince Charles warns of threat of overfishing

At the unveiling of Project Ocean, which is intended to alert customers and tourists in the Oxford Street area of London to the problems of overfishing, he said the oceans are an important food source that needs to be cared for.

"This is more important than ever today, as our population continues to grow and our demand for jobs and development remains apparently insatiable,” he said.

"In other words, sustaining the oceans, and the vast natural capital they sustain, would enable us to meet more needs, not less. As time goes by, however, and we continue to test our precious world to destruction, it is more and more obvious that we need an urgent change in perspective."
