King Harald:
Let's not forget
the climate crisis
King Harald V of Norway.
- At a time when the financial crisis steals all the headlines, we must not forget the climate crisis, Norway's King Harald said in an interview with public broadcaster NRK on Christmas Day.
- We need to keep two thoughts in our head at the same time. I am aware that the financcial crisis has taken over the headlines, but we must not at the same time forget the climate crisis, the King said.
At the same time, the King hopes the international economic problems may turn out to play a positive role with regard to the changes in the climate.
- Things are starting to move a little slower. We are consuming less of the world's resources. It may be that the financial crisis in all its horror may turn out to be an advantage in the long term, King Harald said.
