Queen Elizabeth II's comments come after public interventions this week from both her eldest son and heir, Prince Charles, and her grandson, Prince William.
Queen Elizabeth II has taken aim at world leaders who "talk" but "don't do" enough about climate change, in an apparent jibe at those not attending the upcoming COP26 summit.
The 95-year-old monarch was overheard making the remarks on a microphone as she opened the Welsh Assembly in Cardiff on Thursday.
She told Elin Jones, the parliament's presiding officer: "Extraordinary isn't it. I've been hearing all about COP... still don't know who is coming. No idea.
"We only know about people who are not coming ... It's really irritating when they talk, but they don't do."
