Prince Charles dedicates 2009 to rainforests

Prince Charles plans to spend this year focused on his project to save the world’s rainforests.

The heir to the throne said he is dedicating 2009 to what he describes as “one of the biggest crises facing the planet,” global warming caused by deforestation.

Sixty year old Charles may also appear in adverts with Hollywood star Harrison Ford to raise awareness of rainforest destruction.

Next month Charles is visiting the Amazon rainforest, where he will deliver a key note speech prior to the Copenhagen 2009 summit on climate change.

A spokesperson for the Prince said: “The Prince’s Rainforest Project is working to build a coalition to find a solution to deforestation.

“Part of this project is looking at improving public awareness of the link between climate change and deforestation.

“Any campaign, if one were to run, would be likely to be focused on the digital media.”
