Prince Harry Launches New Eco-Project Telling People Who Fly to New Zealand on Holiday to Save the Planet by Re-using Their Towel
Prince Harry has starred in a skit promoting his new eco-travel project in which holidaymakers are “rated” on their green credentials. MailOnline has more.
In a five-minute video published on the YouTube page of the duke’s non-profit Travalyst today, the Queen’s grandson goes for a jog through California which doubles as the backdrop for “New Zealand woodland”.
He is then ambushed by “rating agent” Rhys Darby, who accuses him of dropping a lolly wrapper four years earlier on a trip to the country with wife Meghan.
The video, which also features Kiwi actors David Fane and Rena Owen, launches the first-ever initiative launched in New Zealand for the British prince’s non-profit Travalyst organisation, founded in 2019, in which holidaymakers, rather than holidays, are rated for how sustainable they are. Kiwis now have access to a rating tool on the Travalyst website as part of a pilot initiative encouraging travellers to consider sustainable options during planning for their next trip.
It is unclear why the Duke chose New Zealand for the project, but Harry is known to love the country and considered moving there with Meghan when they quit as frontline royals, before opting for LA instead.
He told Māori television’s current affairs programme Te Ao with Moana: “The Māori culture inherently understands sustainable practices and taking better care of our life-giving land, which are critical lessons we can all learn and that is why I’m here with you to share a new kaupapa.'”
In the skit, Harry – who is dressed in a grey “Girl Dad” T-shirt and sporting Apple Airpod headphones – is at first given three stars out of five, and then three and a half – as stamps on his arm – for only using one towel and for buying local honey. He is also praised for not leaving the tap running while brushing his teeth.
There’s just one problem with all this, and that’s that the amount of carbon dioxide emitted by flying to New Zealand from the U.K. or L.A. dwarfs – in the alarmist worldview to which Harry and other global elites subscribe – any environmental benefit from buying local honey or reusing a towel. An economy class return flight between London and New Zealand emits around 5.5 tonnes of CO2. That’s not far off three times the two tonnes of CO2 the average U.K. motorist (driving 7,400 miles) emits each year.
Harry, of course, doesn’t fly economy class. A first class return flight from Los Angeles to New Zealand emits around 40 tonnes of CO2 – equivalent to around 20 years of driving for the average U.K. motorist.
And that’s to say nothing of his use of private jets, estimated to emit up to 14 times more CO2 per passenger than commercial flights. While it appears Harry didn’t actually fly out to New Zealand to make this film – perhaps anticipating the obvious criticism for doing so – he is still tacitly promoting flying to New Zealand for a holiday.
But if you believe, as Harry does, that what stands between us and climate catastrophe is the amount of carbon dioxide humans emit, there are more obvious problems with trips to New Zealand, or flying in general, than where you sourced your honey or how many times you used your towel.
I’m also not sure how many people trying to enjoy their holiday are really going to welcome the feedback of a preachy green organisation hectoring them for not turning the tap off. Can’t see it flying somehow.

Harry can stick his dirty towel up his ginger arse
Dirty Harry.
Farty Harry, more like.
Dirty Harry is quite masculine, unlike Farty, who is the dictionary definition of ‘technically a man’.
useful for dabbing dry when he’s been dunking his ginger nuts
A vivid image comes to mind!
Laughing so hard at this comment. This is precisely how so much tosh produced by such people should be greeted. Backlash, I salute you. (Still laughing)
NB – This should not be construed as an anti-monarchy comment. I’m not overly keen on most of them, but I won’t hear a word against the Queen or Princess Anne. Just throwing that in there.
I too am pro-royal, but the younger ones (and Charles) are succumbing to this woke cancer and in doing so they will lose most of their support.
“Girl Dad” – How long before he identifies as a woman? Obvious had no problem with the Covid Tyranny in New Zealand.

‘How long before he identifies as a woman?’…
Well he’s certainly got the mamms for it considering the photo in the dm today.

Re the covid tyranny in NZ – take a look at this, that’s happening in one of its dependencies (and, apparently also in other islands in the South Seas). And note the name of the island’s ”Administrator”:
https://www.thedailyexaminer.co.nz/tokelau-house-arrests-now-include-children/
Wouldn’t Aus and NZ now be better off under China? At least they could blame Foreign Occupation for their misery, rather than their Home Grown WEF psychopaths..
Just a pathetic, henpecked hypocrite, of limited intellect; the last, a hereditary attribute.
About sums it up, under the thumb of trailer trash. How degrading
Mmm, not sure we know what the intellect of his father is. It’s not ole jug ears that’s for sure.
I think we should have a referendum on having the ginger tosser and jug ears complete a paternity test, when it’s proven he has absolutely no ‘blue’ blood in him at all we can finally be rid of him and he can be the plain, ordinary Mr he wants to be 😂😂
Don’t forget that his mother had ‘blue blood’ too – despite all the efforts made to make her seem like a poor little nobody who didn’t know what The Firm was all about. Anyway – this twerp looks exactly like his grandfather D of E.
So …who does Prince Andrew really look like then?
His “brother” is not much better.
Yep – out of Diana, by that Captain fellow!
I can only dream of having the same “carbon footprint” as the ginger twat. I wonder how many minders ginge has with him in first class whilst travelling?
I can only hope that the monarchy comes to an end when the queen dies. I understand that Australia and NZ will split from the UK once that happens.
The younger royals can see what is coming down the road (well, their advisers can, anyway). The traditional base of ordinary, run of the mill Brits are thinning out and so Windsor. Inc. have decided to turn their backs on them and make a play for the next generation.
The next generation are woke, committed to fighting climate change and in a deep trance under the spell of the WEF, corporate bio tech oligarchy, who are actually a very natural ally of an entirely decorative, rent seeking monarchy.
Luckily for all of us, we are at a point in history where what Harry, William or Charles thinks is almost 100% inconsequential. I’d almost say they’re bordering on Tony Blair territory where their support for an issue probably has a negative effect.
Australia and new Zealand are already colonies of China.
Indeed – but also members of “Five Eyes” run by the US Deep State and the CIA.
The case for a British and/or English Republic is stronger with each passing day.
Klaus will not like that idea. You will be on the naughty list!

Something has been lost in translation.
trowel?
Words fail me.
I’ve commented on a lot of things on this site, but this, seriously?
People, if you cannot see it now when will you ever see it?
I saw the words “Read More”; and just couldn’t.
Or me. The tiny piece I saw under the headline was more than enough – filled with more wokery in the photo alone than a person can stomach in a full day!
How stupid does he think we are (by him I mean Hazza)?
How stupid do TPTB think we are?
and finally, How stupid are the people who actually do suck this stuff up?
Will no one rid us of this turbulent fool?
(With apologies to Henry 2nd.)
Aargh, my toes have curled up so tightly watching half that video, I can’t uncurl them. I had to turn it off.
Yep, so cringe from the ginge!
That’s some serious masochism right there.
It never even occurred to me to watch it. I hate throwing up.
How does it use ‘less carbon’ to track and chase a man who dropped a lolly wrapper 4 years ago, by using 4 thicko New Zealanders with walky talkies and a fossil-fuel burning van?
I had New Zealand on my list of places to visit a few years ago, but they are all beginning to look permanently stupid down there, and I don’t think there’s much point in flying all that way to be surrounded by a bunch of spastics.
Here’s a better video of life in that part of the world (I know it was posted a day or two ago, but it’s not bad):

What a tit!
(Apologies if I’ve offended any other tits out there)
How many more downticks can I get with another crass
Mmm… Tits…

🤣
His misses is vastly More Fraudy than Froody
I try to tell myself that they mean well and no not what they do but it doesn’t really help anymore. I don’t bear any of them any ill will I just wish I had the power to cast out the spell that has captured the minds of many. It has no particular bent except that the mainstream must be right because it is the mainstream. Although there have been encouraging trends in recent months with major mainstream news networks suffering huge audience losses. Maybe we just have to hang on a little bit longer and a tipping point will be reached.
Does anyone who reads this website want to read this drivel. All it does is annoy us and reinforce an existing opinion that he is unworthy of his status and a pain in the arse.
If Harry wants some more stars stamped on his arm, he wants to come round here and pick up discarded face masks.
Isn’t he just trying to get revenge for a tortured life under the spotlight of the media?
Given that he’s had to live his entire life including his childhood being constantly judged by everyone in a very public way, so he now wants all of us to be surveilled and judged for every tiny little action. The New Zealand holiday is just a way to get the scheme started.
In short, the guy had a very tough childhood and has grown up into a completely mental adult. My guess is that he needs to be institutionalised.
Prince Harry is try and failing to find a reason to become relevant again.
Living in Los Angeles is about as exciting as living in South Shields.
at least there’s a decent curry house in shields.
OH, I don’t know. You can go to Hollywood parties and have 14 year old jailbait serve you cocktails wearing next to nothing….not sure if Meghan would let him go to too many of those, you know. Too much danger of him being badged with his Uncle Andy.
It’s the awareness that we are ruled by the least among us and we have no clear pathway out of this nightmare. They will rule by politics or mind control or by the dreadful power of the purse. And this time is harder to bear because of the lack of an alternative vision and a sense that the West has run out of gusto.
There are plenty of alternative visions, they just don’t get any coverage because the jackboot stamps on anything which is contrary to the narrative. You must know that.
You have to, in a certain way, have a bit of admiration (grudging of course) for the political class who can manage to undertake a global coup over their populations, in such a way that their populations don’t realise that they have been at war for the last 2 years with their own governments.
That is a tricky war to wage and it is even harder to fight back in an “invisible” war like that.
Once again, voodoo cultism masquerades as science, of course lockdown is part of green ideology, of course lockdown is mediaeval superstition, abandoned centuries ago as policy but revived by the mediaevalist philosophy of environmentalism.
“The uncontested absurdities of today are the accepted slogans of tomorrow. They come to be accepted by degrees, by dint of constant pressure on one side and constant retreat on the other – until one day when they are suddenly declared to be the country’s official ideology.”
I grew up in LA and spent most of my life there. No one who truly wants to live a “sustainable” existence would choose LA as a home. There is nothing sustainable about the LA lifestyle. Even LA’s water has to be brought in from hundreds of miles away (transforming the once verdant Owens Valley into a desert).
As Elon Musk pointed out when promoting his Boring Company scheme, just moving around from place to place in LA means sitting in traffic among hundreds of cars belching out carbon monoxide and other poisons.
Yep, car is king in LA.
They aren’t famed for their bicycling and cycle paths are they?
There are arguments for frugality in terms of spiritual purificaton. St Francis saw his mission as an embrace of poverty not solely an attempt attempt at its alleviation.. I’m all for it if it comes from the heart in a genuine spirit of renunciation. But this is something entirely different. They got their hobby horse gift in 1992 and have been developing more and more devious ways to monetise it. As if these people are sadhus or renunciates, they are utterly soulless and fly around on private planes. It was all meat on the menu at the COP summit.
Harry – proof that money and brains don’t always go together
Unfortunately there seems to be a lot of that about at the moment.
Lewis Hamilton, Raheem Sterling
Because the best person to lecture us about sustainability is a globe trotting hasbeen with a carbon footprint bigger than Yorkshire.
It’s as if their only purpose in life is to rub our faces in it, with a shit-eating grin to top off the weapons grade hypocracy.
What are you going to do just wash your dick once a week? Maybe have recycled toilet paper hanging fromn your walls and used condoms drying out in the aering cupboard. This is not the way.
The whole lot of them are turning into money grubbing bores
Tone deaf uneducated scruffy whinger, he’s lost the plot.
Is he really now the harbinger of the coming end of the Monarchy- not through ‘revolution’ but through self- destruction?
Die-hard Royalists had better make the most the Jubilee!
Some very interesting and apparently well-known stories about Prince Andrew and Lord Porchester circulating.
It is the final stage of the shark feeding frenzy. Where they have devoured all the prey and then they start biting at each other. In the end they are in such a frenzy that they start biting at their own stomachs. Orson Welles gives a good description of it in The Lady From Shanghai
The rich and pontificate are the biggest threat to the planet with their profligate lifestyle, biggest carbon footprints and lack of real knowledge
Ya, great idea -reusing a towel and get your man to put out a change of underwear once every two days ( except weekends!).
because we’re all just dying to travel to “the democractic republic” of NZ.
It will be horse face on your arrival, horseface in your dreams and nightmares, and horseface when you leave. She will make sure that you never forget her.
In New Zealand No One Can Hear You Scream
Every one an “implant” by the WEF?
I was just thinking, how has she got so many teeth? and how come they are so much bigger than mine are? I don’t seem to have half that number!!!
