Prince Charles continues to make changes to his lifestyle, making him the greenest royal in the UK.
The prince will replace carbon-heavy private jets and helicopters with scheduled flights and train services.
Next week, he will take delivery of Jaguar cars adapted to run on biodiesel fuel, while royal residences such as Highgrove in Gloucestershire will switch to green electricity.
Aides said using cleaner transport such as national rail services was now a priority for the prince and his staff, but that this would happen only “where appropriate”. They ruled out the heir to the throne travelling across London on the tube or arriving at official functions by bicycle.

It’s admirable how Prince Charles is actually working for the environment, and to see that he’s also doing his best to live in a green way too. I also just heard that he’s also been refitting his home to be more eco-friendly.
And he’s building an eco-home for his son too it seems. Here’s a link to the story.
