McDonald's Makes Its Logo More 'Green' In Europe ( Emerald arches )
NPR ^ | November 24th | Renee Montagne

Posted on 11/28/2009 3:04:25 PM PST by Halfmanhalfamazing

McDonald's logo is going green to promote a more eco-friendly image in Europe. It is swapping its traditional red backdrop for a deep green. The company says about 100 German McDonald's will make the change by the end of the year. Some franchises in Great Britain and France already have started using the new color scheme.

And our last word in business today: emerald arches.

When did they start using beef? :) They’re changing to green to match the color of my face whenever I eat there.

Is that because of the condition (age) of the beef or bcause (yuck) they’re using Tofu burgers?

They’ll be switching to soylent green by the end of the year. Save a lot in waste disposal costs over there too.

This is why it will be so hard to stop the global warming scam. Big money is heavily invested in it and will lose monster dollars if it fails.

McDonald’s has used teal green arches in Sedona, AZ for years.

I’ve been to McDonald’s all over the world. In many places outside the U.S. they’re still using the styrofoam sandwich boxes that they ceased using in America for environmental reasons.

I got a new HD TV the other day and after going through the automatic set up, I discovered that I have a half dozen PBS channels.

These are the same people who endlessly have fund drives and suck on the taxpayer nipple and here they are with all these channels and all of them are local.

To paraphrase Ann Coulter, they are diving into the mosh pit just as the crowd is breaking up.

Yep. I have that newfangled ‘Free Goobermint TV’ in the kitchen, and I have THREE PBS channels to pass over on a regular basis, LOL!
