Green and profitable - HRH The Prince of Wales
Image: Duchy of Cornwall
HRH The Prince of Wales "has already hit his target of cutting carbon emissions by 12.5 per cent by 2012, in line with the Government's Kyoto target".
A small portion of this reduction is ascribed to converting his 38-year-old Aston Martin to bio-ethanol made from English wine. (An accidental choice since the producer "just happened" to make the fuel from surplus English wine. Surplus? Why on earth would there be a surplus of English wine? And why is the Prince not reducing the extra bottles in more bibulous ways?)
Prince Charles has also reduced his household expenses 15% and made a profit of more than £8 million on his Duchy estate.
Perhaps someone could put him in charge of running the Government?
