[quote]Prince Charles flew 125miles in a helicopter to give speech on aircraft emissions.

Climate campaigner Prince Charles was at the centre of an eco row for lecturing scientists on reducing aircraft emissions – after flying in on the Queen’s helicopter.

The royal – already under fire over air travel costing £280,000 last month – flew 178 miles on two journeys.

But the chopper’s total trip, to and from base, was 368 miles.

Experts say the helicopter’s full journey, involving four flights, caused carbon emissions of around 2.5 tonnes, used hundreds of gallons of aviation fuel and cost at least £12,000.[/quote]

@Nimbus I guess anyone not getting around with literal horse power and not wearing a hair shirt is a hypocrite.

@Nimbus And The Mirror? I am Canadian and even I know that is a questionable source.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow The difference being people with horse power do not pontificate from a position of future King.

@Nimbus we both know that that has had very little to do with anything in this day and age. Realistically it just gives him the same platform as a B list celebrity.

Remember that time when the big three CEOs flew in to beg congress for money and was sent home and had to return in fuel efficient vehicles

@MarineBob That was more about showing up to claim you are broke in a luxury jet and in suits worth a year's salary for the people in the plant.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Kinda like miss nancy flying around the world in a tax-payer funded Air Force jet to attend climate change orgies---er conventions--

@sunsporter1649 No. Not at all the same but I a know you are easily confused. Not surprised your mind immediately goes in the gutter too.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Solar powered jets at Davos?

@sunsporter1649 Another random tangent. I guess to you anyone not riding a horse in a hair shirt is a hypocrite. You do realize that is a logical fallacy right?

sunsporter1649 · 70-79, M

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow I realize that all those fat cats riding around in their private jets getting rich off suckers like you are hypocrites, yes

@sunsporter1649 Says the guy who believes corporate shills for oil and gas and corrupt politicians over scientists and decades of data.
