Duchy Backs 'Bio Pods'

The Duchy of Cornwall has recently made it clear that any future development on the Islands would be particularly well accepted if it were ?environmentally friendly’. This statement has provoked the imaginations of some into action and Bio-pods are being seriously looked at as a sustainable form of accommodation. It is likely that any such Bio-pod would be similar to those found on the island of Tarransay, the scene for the BBC?s Castaway 2000 series. This has come at a time when many Islanders had voiced concerns over the increasing demand for accommodation for young Scillonians. The Duke of Cornwall himself, HRH Prince Charles is an infamously avid supported of environmentally friendly living and it is thought that the Duchy in Scilly are following this same line.
