The King’s first major personal project as monarch is an initiative aiming to bridge the gap between food waste and food need.
King Charles is preparing to launch his first major personal project as monarch – an initiative aiming to bridge the gap between food waste and food need.
It is a subject about which the King is passionate. He has previously voiced support for “use up” days, which can reduce food waste by up to a third, while personal efforts to save resources include feeding kitchen food scraps to his chickens and converting his Aston Martin sports car to run on surplus wine and whey from the cheese process.Such is his dedication to the cause that the King is no stranger to unveiling fridge freezers as well as plaques.
King Charles insists that “informed choices” can help cut the “colossal” amount of waste. He also believes that tackling the problem could reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by up to 10 per cent because farmers would be under less pressure.in 2010, the then prince Charles expressed frustration about food waste, saying: “It’s perhaps worth drawing attention to the immense amount of waste in the system – something like 10 billion quid’s worth a year.“That is immoral again.
