He admits that himself.

However ...

He probably wouldn't have lived anywhere near 100 if he was vegan.

I personally think 1 person making people aware of climate change is not being a hypocrite because they use planes etc. How else would he get to the places to bring the wonderful planet to our homes?

I'm not overthinking anything.. He's telling everyone to be careful in travelling the world due to climate change.. He didn't give it a second thought when he was doing it.

He is an absolute gentleman and national treasure. He has been bringing nature into people’s living rooms for many many years some of which most of us would never have seen or even known existed if it wasn’t for him and his wonderful TV documentaries

It’ll be a very sad day when we lose him 😞

The difference being that he was travelling to places to educate and inspire not to validate their lives on social media!!

I don't think many people hitch-hike to PDI for their sexual 'kicks'🤔

For the amount of education his travelling has provided to everyone regarding our planet and the damage being caused to it I will forgive him the carbon footprint associated to that.

What a ridiculous comment. He's supposed to travel by hot air balloon to educate and inspire millions about the world we live in?

Utter tripe, even for this forum.

Absolutely. He should have gone to all those places on foot. And so should the camera & production crew, carrying all their gear.

Except for the wet bits in between, of course. The swimming would have kept them all in shape.

Your kind of missing what I'm saying.. Or maybe I havnt explained it well.. I'm not bothered about what he's done or how he's got there! I really couldn't care less, good on him. But why tell everyone that they shouldn't be doing the same!

Preferably not a hot air balloon really.. It uses gas! A more greener solution would of been an EV as they are completely emission free and Will save the planet!

Your argument is a bit silly. It’s a bit like saying charity workers that highlight famine are hypocrites for going to the local supermarket to buy food.

I'm not really arguing with anyone, that's just what I think of him.

"Nope.. He's a hypocrite "

The thing is he continually learnt about the planet and the natural world throughout his life and he changed, learnt from his mistakes.

You are allowed to gain knowledge and then change behaviour

Discover new information and pass it on, the fact that you weren't previously guided by this new knowledge and information doesn't make you a hypocrite. Accepting being re-educated and changing your behaviour should be applauded.

Is it really practicable to live a perfect environmentally friendly life?

Most of his behaviour that he himself regrets was decades ago before anyone knew about the dangers. Now we are educated, but even in the 80s and early 90s I was only really aware of the ozone layer problem.

Though not related to being classed as a hypocrite due to causing environmental damage by travel, he was guilty of other things but that was way back, decades ago. They would be classed as unacceptable by our standards. Capturing wild animals for zoos, taking offspring to hand rear.

Back in those days it wasn't thought of as being wrong, so just because you took part in those activities but reject them now doesn't make you a hypocrite.

You are allowed to become enlightened.

He must have inspired thousands upon thousands of individuals, been instrumental in harnessing support for organisations that are champions for this planet and the natural world.

The knowledge, and wonder of the world that he has in part, brought into the homes of people all over this world.

Showing us what we are all part of.

I hope he has a fucking great birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But… he travelled almost all of it (until he was 75) in economy class. He is a multi millionaire and could well travel in business or first but these really do leave a large carbon footprint.

He is modest and an inspiration.
