The Prince of Organics

Whatever you make of the man, Prince Charles is dedicated to promoting his personal vision of an organic and sustainable mode of living. Several media sources have outlined his recent attempts to initiate a documentary film which appears to have the working title “Harmony Project”. This documentary should be an excellent vehicle for delivering a strong message about our relationship with the planet. Ultimately we depend upon maintaining a balance between our desire for new technologies and our basic need for a clean environment and safe food resources. One of Prince Charles’s concerns is that in the rush for advanced technology, we may have lost valuable wisdom from the past.

Over many years Prince Charles has campaigned against genetically modified food and promoted the benefits of organic agriculture and a holistic approach to health and well-being. He has also transformed his country home at Highgrove into one of the finest working examples of an organic farm.

There’s plenty of speculation concerning others who may become involved with the Prince’s Harmony project. One possible contributor is the documentary director Stuart Sender who made the critically acclaimed and Oscar nominated “Prisoner of Paradise”. Another name mentioned has been that of Indian scientist and environmental campaigner Vandana Shiva. It makes plenty of sense that Prince Charles should seek assistance from respected individuals who share his own concerns on environmental issues.
