Prince Charles is an Environmentalist, and His Private Jets went 8,000 Miles in a Single Month.
To be completely honest, Prince Charles was the original eco-warrior, even though everyone is now a supporter of environmental causes. For Pete’s sake, he’s been promoting environmental conservation since the 1970s! However, and this is a big but, he is also the second most senior member of the Royal Family, and he travels extensively throughout the world on behalf of the Royal Family.
Skeptical about an initiative to encourage “rapid decarbonization,” Charles’s aircraft flew more than 8,000 nautical miles in a single month in 2020, most of which was spent with NO ONE on board! One such instance was when an empty private jet was dispatched from Vienna to Scotland in order to pick up Charles and fly him to Oman, and then returned to Austria empty.
