Prince Charles: Climate change is the ‘wolf at the door’

Prince Charles believes climate change is the "wolf at the door".
The 68-year-old royal has joined forces with Tony Juniper – a former Friends of the Earth director – and Cambridge University climate scientist Emily Shuckburgh – to pen a book about the challenges and possible solutions to the issue of climate change.
In his foreword for the book, the Prince of Wales writes: "I hope this modest attempt to alert a global public to the ‘wolf at the door’ will make some small contribution towards encouraging requisite action; action that must be urgently scaled up, and scaled up now."
Whilst a spokesperson for the Prince added to the Daily Telegraph newspaper: "It is the thing he is most concerned about. He regards climate change as the number one threat to the planet and it is the thing he cares most passionately about."
The 48-page book – which is called ‘The Ladybird Book on Climate Change’ – is part of a new series of Ladybird books for adults called ‘The Ladybird Expert’.
Collaborator Tony said previously: "His Royal Highness, Emily and I had to work very hard to make sure that each word did its job, while at the same time working with the pictures to deliver the points we needed to make.
"I hope we’ve managed to paint a vivid picture, and like those iconic titles from the 60s and 70s, created a title that will stand the test of time."
Whilst Rowland White, a publishing director with Penguin, added: "It was a coincidence where we were thinking about a new series for adults after the huge success of the spoof books, but this time wanted some factual books by experts on science, history and arts subjects. So the call and the idea from Clarence House was the catalyst for the new series."
