Prince Harry and his wife's "environmental protection facilities" collapsed
According to the itinerary information disclosed by the British media, in just eight days, Prince Harry and his three-month-old son Archie took 12 special planes with a market price of 15 million pounds to travel three times, two of which were from the UK to the Spanish resort island of Ibiza, and the other one was to fly to nice, a beautiful city in southern France, two days after returning from Ibiza. To mark Megan's 38th birthday.
There are more than 20 flights from London to nice, the times and other media reported Monday. It is not only expensive to choose a small private plane, but also the average carbon emission per person is seven times that of the business class of an ordinary airliner. It is expected that the carbon footprint of the journey of the Harry family to France will reach 3 tons, and the carbon footprint of the luxury private villa to Ibiza will exceed 4 tons.
Not long ago, Prince Harry talked about "setting an example" in the September issue of vogue, a magazine edited by Megan, according to the daily mail. He announced in a high voice that he and his wife Megan would have "at most two children" for the sake of environmental protection. In addition, at the end of last month, Prince Harry delivered an environmental speech at the global climate summit in Sicily, calling for people to work together to protect the environment. "Nearly 7.7 billion people live on this planet, and every choice, every footprint, every action will change," he wrote recently. Earlier reports said Prince Harry refused to use plastic. Once when he stayed in a hotel, he found that his shirt was put into a plastic bag, so he called on the hotel staff not to use plastic products.
Harry and his wife's high-profile environmental protection actions are now "beaten by the hammer" because of their luxurious holiday travel. "To be frank, that's hypocrisy," said Ken waldf, a former royal security official. "Harry can't travel around the world in a private plane while talking about the disastrous consequences of climate change." One British MP said it was "too surprising that this is not in line with the public image of the Harry and his wife and the green lifestyle they have been emphasizing". Many British people also think that Harry and his wife are "hypocritical". Apart from not being environmentally friendly, they also criticize them for taking the British people's tax money to spend a luxury holiday.
According to the sun, Prince Harry and his wife rented their private jet for a holiday from a professional business jet company, costing more than 20000 pounds (170000 yuan) for a trip. By contrast, easyJet, which offers cheap air services, has a round-trip ticket from London to nice for just £ 232 a person.
