I wouldn't go that far.....

All members of the Royal Family are expected to work. Prince Charles is patron to hundreds of different organizations/charities, and is very active (think Senior Executive, CEO type role) is many of them. Certainly not the blue collar hammer-swinging way we would associate with work, but he definitely has a job.

As for the specifics of the story......I think Charles has every right to comment. He's perfectly qualified to form an educated opinion on these subjects. While I wouldn't consider Charles to be the world authority on the Environment or on issues of spirituality, he has studied religion and spirituality his entire life and is certainly well versed in the topics. As for the Environment - it's the topic that the Prince has dedicated his adult life to, decades before it became fashionable.
