NO he plunks himself on his own little island where he takes advantage of the fact he has cash.
Hey give me the cash and I'll buy an island as well and live in a very environmentally caring fashion.
I think I know what's best for you. Now you get out there and make the sacrifices neccessary.
Well he has thrown up his hands and given up on us. Oh well.

You mean when he rides his bike to the ferry terminal to get to the mainland from his environmentally sustainable house?
I have SEEN with my own three eyes this myth of david suzuki on the bus. He rides the #4 from ubc to his house, when he isn't riding his bike or driving his prius. The #4 is even an electric trolley bus for gods sake.
What you might see as an arrogant know it all, most of the rest of canada sees as a 70+ year old biologist who has dedicated his life to the subjects he's 'dropping in' about.
Did you ever think the reason this biologist lives on an island is to maybe...enjoy the natural world around him that has been largely destroyed on the mainland?
BUT OH MY GOD HE WANTS TO SAVE ENDANGERED SPECIES! LOCK HIM UP!
Who needs Spotted Owls and the 27 different species of animal (and the literal hundreds of species of plant) that rely on the owl anyway? What a bunch of saps. It's their own fault if they can't live in destroyed habitat. If owls were so special, they'd live in subsidized housing, am I right?
