[quote Luckingfovely]@Eleganz that's okay, we're fine to have different perspectives. I could cite many different studies that would refute your perspective, and that's fine too.
I think the biggest problem is that people are too quick to jump on any one bandwagon without any understanding of the wider world perspective. It's very easy to do.
As just a small example- the so-called battle between vegans and the pro-ketos.
Neither is wrong; each can do equal wrong to the environment.
The bigger point is that we all need to understand that we need to be conscious of what we eat and where it comes from - meat is fine, if reared sustainably. Vegetables can be terrible if grown in places where they are displacing local crops and are flown thousand of miles and kept fresh with damaging gases. Without farming, none of it - or us - exist.
It's all - as this conversation is probably - about a bigger understanding of sustainable farming and ecology.

Please cite them. I'd be very interested in any peer reviewed studies on the impact of Jeremy Clarkson on sustainable farming practices, particularly if they demonstrate that this is more substantial the Greta Thunberg's influence. That would early back up the point you were trying to make.
I'm not sure that your bigger point in your previous post was about improving the awareness of how our food is produced and how it can be made more sustainable. I think the point of it was to attempt to burnish Jeremy Clarkson's eco credentials and downplay the positive influence Greta Thunberg's activism has had.
You seem to have also made some assumption that I am a band wagon jumper who needs to be educated about balanced sustainable farming. I think that's a bit of straw-manning on your part.
