'Follow the Islamic way to save the world’ Prince Charles urges environmentalists

Prince Charles yesterday urged the world to follow Islamic ‘spiritual principles’ in order to protect the environment.

In an hour-long speech, the heir to the throne argued that man’s destruction of the world was contrary to the scriptures of all religions – but particularly those of Islam.

He said the current ‘division’ between man and nature had been caused not just by industrialisation, but also by our attitude to the environment – which goes against the grain of ‘sacred traditions’.

Outspoken: Prince Charles speaks to Islamic studies scholars at Oxford. He argued that man’s destruction of the world was particularly contrary to Islam

Water meters Vs water companies actually fixing things up.

All those people experiencing wet conditions right now may not be aware that many parts of the UK are currently facing drought.

I was just reading and to me its pretty shocking. The government is in action, it wants to install more smart water meters which will force people to be more efficient in their water use because using more will cost more.

This may save up to 2% of the overall water usage.

This is billed as a big efficiency.

with all the information that is being hammered in our head about cars and how polluting they are and how they destroy the environment etc... do you still want to drive?

i do want my driver license, but i dont think i want to buy my own car (more for the cost etc.. than the enviromental side) i'll just use my dad's car. i will definatly keep on using the bus etc.. and hopefully will only use the car when necessary.

what about you?
