King Charles III has urged world leaders gathered in Dubai to make the COP28 climate summit a "turning point".
In a speech on the second day of the conference, the monarch warned that despite some progress "we remain so dreadfully far off track".
He called for "genuine transformational action", a day after the meeting opened with stark warnings on global warming.
The King said he has spent “a large proportion of my life trying to warn of the existential threats facing us over global warming, climate change and biodiversity loss”.
He said that despite this, decades later there is 30% more CO2 in the atmosphere now than back then, and almost more than 40% more methane.
