Britain’s Prince Charles will open a climate change exhibition in England on Friday (23.03.07). The exhibition in Woking is set to be continued in shopping centres across the UK, following discussion between Chancellor Gordon Brown and the country’s top shopping centre landlords in February. The exhibition, which is a joint venture by Business in the Community and BCSC and endorsed by the Climate Group, will feature display stands with information on issues like recycling, energy use, transport, waste reduction and food sources. Prince Charles - who won a top environment award in January - is a keen supporter of the initiative, aimed at making shoppers aware of how they can reduce their carbon footprints. Charles was awarded the Global Environmental Citizen Prize by Harvard Medical School’s Center for Health and the Global Environment in New York, for his ‘outstanding work towards protecting the environment’. However, the royal was later criticised and branded a ‘hypocrite’ for flying to the US to collect the award. Last year, Clarence House announced they were working on ways to reduce their carbon emissions. But Charles came under fire again when he and wife Camilla Duchess of Cornwall travelled by private jet for their ten-day tour of the Gulf last month.
