He owns grouse moors, he doesn't give a shit about the environment
The King's Foundation says the feature-length TV film, provisionally titled Finding Harmony: A King's Vision, will be screened on Amazon's Prime Video early next year.
Interesting that the King, of all people, chose to broadcast this on a private corporate channel instead of the BBC. Did the BBC reject it? Why Amazon, a huge polluter?
Cash machine goes brrrrrrrrrt probably.
I'm sure he feels like he's making a difference in his private plane.
Can't he actually do something, instead of making another documentary about how fucked we are? Maybe he wants to be admired like Attenborough but he's just an inbred autocrat who deserves no respect.
He has. He was an early adopter of ethanol fuel, forcing Aston Martin to convert his DB6 to E85 and roping his father in as well. His farms have been organic since the mid 80s, and he’s been a frontman for sustainability since 1970. He also founded a model town to showcase sustainable develoment practices.
On the other hand it’s controversial for a royal to try to meddle in policy, something very much frowned upon since his namesake got an extreme haircut.
'Hopefully someone with power will watch my documentary and make positive policy changes for the environment', lamented the literal king.
Not on the Beeb, oh my.
