Hamilton has been an advocate for sustainable living and has publicly spoken about it a number of times on his social media. In a 2020 Instagram post, he spoke about his journey toward living a greener and healthier lifestyle. He wrote, “The first step in this journey was to understand my personal impact on the planet so I could make changes to improve it. Since then, I have offset my carbon footprint from my Formula 1 career dating back to 2007, and I have reduced travel where possible.” He also pointed out to his followers that he now lives a plant-based diet, and drives electric vehicles whenever he is able to.
This post got mixed reactions from his audience, some openly mocking Hamilton, because they thought it came off as a little out of touch as he was flaunting his brand-new electronic Mercedes EQS to his millions of followers (via The Daily Mail).
Despite questions people may have about the level of his commitment to reducing his carbon footprint, The Sun reported that Hamilton made good on his pledge and sold his $29 million dollar private jet in February 2019. It is now owned by a private jet company in the United Kingdom, Saxon Air, and it’s based at Norwich Airport.
