Paradise Islands Archive: Prince Charles lobbied to change climate agreements in the interests of the company he invested in
In 2007-2008, the heir to the British throne, Prince Charles, proposed changing international agreements on limiting greenhouse gas emissions, while owning shares in an offshore company that would benefit from these changes, the BBC reports, citing documents from the Paradise Islands Archive. In February 2007, the documents show, the Duchy of Cornwall bought shares in Sustainable Forestry Management, a Bermuda-registered company whose directors included Prince Charles's friend Hugh van Cutsem.
