Taking his cue from the French, Prince Charles urges British families to 'snub the bathtub'


Prince Charles urges British families to 'snub the bathtub' | Mail Online
A new 'Plan 9.2 From Outer Space' ---- Your Tin-Foil Hat Awaits----
If the Prince could keep his kidney pie hole closed there would be much less global warming!

Prince Charles has told British families to take shorter showers to help protect the environment.

The instruction came at the end of a list of 20 lifestyle changes recommended by the Prince of Wales for his new green campaign, Start.

However, the 61-year-old Prince might need to tackle his own family's washing habits before telling the rest of the country how to behave. His father the Duke of Edinburgh, 89, takes baths.

He slipped in one in 2005 and badly bruised his left eye after catching it with his thumb.

And Sarah Ferguson, Charles's former sister-in-law and the mother of his nieces, has spoken of taking ice-cold baths on a daily basis to tackle her 'dark' moods.

As for the Prince of Wales himself, Clarence House last night remained tight-lipped on whether he takes short showers......


Prince Charles has previously spoken of being born into his position as heir to the throne 'for a purpose' – to tackle global warming.

At Clarence House, energy-efficient boilers have been installed and bath water is recycled to water the plants.

The Prince's Jaguar, Audi and Range Rover cars run on biodiesel made from used cooking oil, while his 40- year-old Aston Martin uses bioethanol made entirely from wine.

Last year Charles, cut carbon emissions by 4 per cent at his four households and increased the use of renewable energy to 22 per cent.
