"I spend 99 percent of my life traveling around the world for business reasons, and occasionally there must be the opportunity to make sure my family is safe due to special circumstances." Thus, Prince Harry established vacation trips with a private jet in late August, for which he and his wife Duchess Meghan were heavily criticized.
"The question is what we are doing to make up for that," said 34-year-old Royal in a speech at a green tourism promotion event in Amsterdam, to which Sky News, among others, reported. Everyone bears the responsibility for their own actions and thus the impact on the environment, he said and included himself in it.
Four flights in eleven days
By the end of August, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had gone on vacation with Baby Archie. They spent six days in Ibiza and did not fly to Nice two days later. There they stayed in the private villa of Elton John for three days. The royal couple accepted four private jet flights in just eleven days for the short break.
For this purpose, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who have often expressed their commitment to climate protection and regularly campaign for environmental and animal protection, have been strongly criticized. In the social networks, but also in the media, they were accused of feigning interest in environmental protection and their private life not environmentally friendly.
