Climate Crisis Takes a Royal Backseat: The Unfortunate Absence of King Charles

Charles, 75, has reportedly not been invited to this year’s event after government officials concluded it would be in the best interests of his health and schedule.

“The King will not go to the COP. He has not been asked by the government to attend the event and is also mindful of his commitments after the upcoming autumn tour,” a source told the Mirror.

The COP29 Summit in Baku, Azerbaijan from November 11 to 22 will find world leaders gathering to discuss climate change and the collaborative steps they can take to tackle it.

The monarch won widespread praise last December for a speech at COP28 in which he stressed the importance of urgently meeting the goals of the 2015 Paris Agreement

It comes after it was revealed the King will “pause” his cancer treatment while taking part in a high-profile visit to Australia and Samoa this month after being given the go-ahead by doctors.

Charles, who will make the nine-day visit with Queen Camilla, was first diagnosed with an unknown form of cancer earlier this year after a routine procedure to treat an enlarged prostate.

It is understood that he will continue his treatment on his return, after 11 days of travel. His doctor will accompany him on the most important overseas tour he has taken since the diagnosis.

A plan to also visit New Zealand had to be canceled on doctor’s advice and adjustments were made to the rest of the schedule to allow more time for rest.

When the trip was announced, a Buckingham Palace spokesman said: “We’ve had to make some difficult decisions about the program with the Australian government about where their majesties can go.”

The King’s only overseas visit since announcing his cancer diagnosis in February was to Normandy in June for the D-Day celebrations.

COP29 begins in Baku, Azerbaijan, on November 11, just over a fortnight after the royal family’s long flight back to the UK.

He missed the 2022 summit, the first of his reign, after a “unanimous agreement” was reached he should not attend the gathering in Egypt on government advice.
