Jeremy Clarkson, the popular host of "The Clarkson's Farm" and former presenter of "Top Gear," has been making a name for himself in the world of farming in recent years. However, his recent discovery on his farm has caused some concern among his fans. On a stroll around his Diddly Squat farm, the 63-year-old star noticed a significant decline in the number of butterflies. He took to Twitter to share his concern, writing, "Just been for a walk round the farm and I'm a bit alarmed by how few butterflies there are. Something is afoot."
Fans were quick to react, with one follower suggesting that he stop using pesticides and switch to organic farming methods. Jeremy defended his practices, stating that they were doing all the right things, including not going organic, which he believes does not work. This sparked a heated debate among fans, with some accusing him of being part of the problem and others pointing out the irony of his previous comments about climate change.
Some fans sarcastically hinted at his previous statements, with one writing, "Something is afoot, guys. Who knows what it could be. It's a mystery." Others shared articles and statistics about the decline of insect populations, urging Jeremy to use his platform to raise awareness about the issue.
This is not the first time Jeremy has faced backlash for his views on the environment. In the past, he has described climate protesters as "a handful of beardy people in Crocs, socks, and high-visibility jackets" and has made jokes about living on pills instead of food. However, he insists that these were just jokes and that he takes environmental issues seriously.
In a 2023 article for The Times, he argued that achieving a clean and green world would require sacrificing many things that bring us joy, such as traditional food and natural pleasures. But some fans believe that he could do us all a real service by using his platform to raise awareness about the severity of the issue. They argue that human activity is killing the world and that we are on the way out, taking a million species with us.
Despite the backlash, Jeremy remains unapologetic about his views. In a recent interview, he defended his previous comments as part of his "caricature" and insisted that they were meant as jokes. However, some fans are not amused and believe that he should use his influential voice to spread awareness about environmental issues.
In the end, it seems that Jeremy's discovery of the declining butterfly population on his farm has sparked a larger conversation about the importance of protecting the environment. Whether or not he will take a more serious approach to the issue remains to be seen. But for now, his fans are keeping a close eye on his farm and his tweets, hoping for a positive change in his views and actions.
