Ice Cream ... a dairy product, requiring TONS of carbon to manufacture, from planting, cultivating, and harvesting the cow feed, to the milking machines, and even cow flatulence, to the massive amounts of energy required for creating containers, refrigeration, shipping, and displaying in stores.

Until they voluntarily go out of business, or can prove that none of their products rely in any way on “fossil” fuels, they can just shut up.

How can these glaring hypocrites even live with themselves.

LOL! Well, because they’re doing it for “all the right reasons”. Remember, “they care”.

Hmmm ... that IS a good question: what’s the carbon footprint of a pint of gourmet ice cream?

Somebody should tell ol’ Ben & Jerry that 40% of carbon dioxide is caused by livestock. Oh yeah, and evil cars? 5% to 8% tops.
