The event, held in Davos, Switzerland, marked the first time the Prince of Wales met the Swedish climate activist
and Greta Thunberg found another trait they share in common when they met for the first time at the World Economic Forum on Wednesday.
After shaking hands and making their introductions, photographers began to rapidly snap pictures of their encounter.“Very true. It’s taken me years to get used to this,” Charles, who rarely gets candid during royal outings, replied.
Clarence House uploaded photos of the prince’s meeting with Thunberg, who took on the stage herself on Tuesday, criticizing world leaders for doing “basically nothing” in their efforts to reduce carbon emissions.“She’s remarkable, she represents one of the main reasons why I’ve been trying to make all this effort all these years,” Charles told.
