The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall together with a 14-strong entourage are going to Chile, Brazil and Ecuador on a 16,400-mile round trip. The purpose: promoting environmental stewardship and responsibility.
To get there, he is flying on an air transporter and once there, will fly in a private jet to each location. The maximum number of passengers, according to his office, for any leg of the trip is under 30 – the Airbus plane has room for 134.
See any problem here? Imagine a headline “Gas Guzzling Prince Advises Against Excessive Petroleum Use!”. Its all, well, very sad really…
