Now that his brother has quit Oasis and kasabian is off possibly working with and likely lining up all sorts of cool, non Oasis stuff, Liam Gallagher has tapped into his softer side by throwing his support to the campaign to save Britain’s honeybees, which are slowly dying out.
The singer had become more aware of the bees dire condition after the use of honey helped him cure a throat virus that forced Oasis to pull out of the V Festival in August. It’s now a particular cause for Gallagher who is also lending his support to the new film The Vanishing of the Bees, set for release in the UK next week.
The Brit rocker even teamed up with a man wearing a giant bee outfit to promote the film this week.
Said Gallagher: “I like honey. If it weren’t for honey, I’d have a rough voice.”
If you weren’t aware, the bees are responsible for pollinating around 1/3 of the UK’s food; a further drop in the bee population could be bad news for the country’s agriculture industry. The cause remains unclear for the falling honeybee numbers, but scientists are focusing on increased use of pesticides and climate change as possible factors.
