Ten of the world’s largest food production companies sent a letter to the U.S. Congress on Thursday, encouraging them to take action on climate change.
The letter was signed by the chief executive officers from Unilever, Mars, Kellogg, General Mills, Nestle, New Belgium Brewing, Ben & Jerry’s, Clif Bar, Stonyfield Farm, and Dannon.
“The challenge presented by climate change will require all of us – government, civil society and business – to do more with less. For companies like ours, that means producing more food on less land using fewer natural resources. If we don’t take action now, we risk not only today’s livelihoods, but those of future generations,” they wrote. “We are asking you to embrace the opportunity presented to you in Paris, and to come back with a sound agreement, properly financed, that can affect real change.”
Unilever spokesman Tom Langan pointed out that no one company can do this alone during an earlier round-table discussion in D.C.
“The reality is, Unilever can hit all its goals and it won’t make a difference, alone, in and of itself,” Langan said. “We need to work together. We need governments to be involved.”

“Must be a buck to be made somewhere.”
Research grants and tax breaks.
They may have more control than many recognize, even if what they are doing is causing unknown complications
Pay attention to what is happening in your skies
the solution? pay more taxes
CON-gress can’t even balance a checkbook, how are they going to protect our food from imaginary “climate change”?
OMG!! The world is CRAZY!
Their letter went out right after they got a phone call from Obama’s Storm Troopers at the IRS saying, “Get serious about helping with this hoax or prepare for an anal examine.” Adolph would be proud!
This group would have us live on cereal, chocolate, ice cream and Pringles (Kellogg). The new five essential food groups.
They are food processing companies, not food production companies.

How can people boycott all ten of these losers without starving themselves to death?
Giant, greedy, greenie, global warming, corporatist, fascist Nanny State PING!
Unicorns are the real problem...
Yogurt is very easy to make. Do you use a culture you bought or just some yogurt you bought?
“Unilever, Mars, Kellogg, General Mills, Nestle, New Belgium Brewing, Ben & Jerry’s, Clif Bar, Stonyfield Farm, and Dannon.”
Easy enough to boycott some of these companies. The first five are behemoths that own just about every OTHER little brand-name company below them.
——WOW! Hard to believe that people in such high places are such uninformed idiots.——
I doubt these guys are idiots...more like paying for protection from the government global warming Nazi’s...
My roommate used to buy yogurt to feed his dogs, so I took a tablespoon and made a batch and showed that I could make it at home for about
1/10 the price. I used the oven. Just the heat of the oven light with a deck of cards propping the door open a crack gave me 110ish degrees.
Great idea. I just wrap it with a heavy blanket and it turns out great.
The Onion? Or just morons.
