    The Climate is our #1 issue!

    Also, let's mass import people who previously lived an extremely low environmental footprint into our very high footprint country. Let's give the whole world McMansions and SUVs!

      Exactly. Global warmists are typically for mass immigration. Never heard them square that circle.

    • Ononono on 16/05/2019 - 22:25

      Nice, you somehow connected free ice cream with anti immigration nonsense. Impressive!

        OP is also about climate change.

        Lovely that you couldn't deny the fact that he is right.

    I wonder what scientific consensus will be subject to the views of political parties next. Perhaps recognising that cancer exists will be considered a "leftist" position.

    • [Deactivated] on 16/05/2019 - 10:46

      That's some serious critical thinking you have going on…about your own strawman argument.

      • AlanHB on 16/05/2019 - 11:03

        Perhaps the anti-vax movement would be a better comparison, layperson disagreement with doctors.

        You could see the right supporting anti vax movement, as Trump did until just recently.

        • [Deactivated] on 16/05/2019 - 11:05

          If you are drawing a parallel between climate scientists and doctors, did their climate models factor in the Hungarian large scale selling of used carbon credits? How exactly do you measure precisely the carbon output of illegal logging in Indonesia and Brazil? How many scientists measured the many hundreds of thousands of hectares burnt in bushfires in Australia and Canada? Why would Russia and Canada participate to stem climate change when they are projected to profit handsomely from oilfields in the thawing permafrost? It's reasonably likely Putin is the world's richest man, just undeclared, and a major shareholder of GazProm. What's the science behind a solution when Putin stands to get even richer through global warming.

            @[Deactivated]: Um… Didn't you complain about strawmanning?

            • [Deactivated] on 16/05/2019 - 14:01

              @Strong Salad: Yes, read above a couple of comments. That's where. You're welcome. ;)

              @chymb: No. There is a dearth of science involved and you were slow on the uptake.

        • rokufan on 16/05/2019 - 19:19

          The anti-vaxer movement is not a right or left thing. Plenty of lefty middle class inner-city green types who like organic, natural therapies, etc, are anti-vaxers.

    • rokufan on 16/05/2019 - 18:58

      what scientific consensus will be subject to the views of political parties next

      Already, biology is a conservative position, the left are biology-deniers. Given the amount of climate change hyperbole that is divorced from the actual science - in time, as the evidence builds (rather, fails to), the left's claim of being the party of science will be completely bankrupt.

      Unilever's 2018 carbon output was 61,000,000 tonnes and they think giving a scoop of icecream gives them environmental cred.

      Climate change deniers are rabid on the internet because no-one gives em the time of day in real life.

        Not really. Just a proponent why the polarity of the Earth reverses periodically, then you'll see how little science is involved. Maybe you can share your thoughts on it. Maybe you can explain how much CO2 is released during a significant volcanic eruption and how it is measured accurately.

    There's plenty of evidence that science won't change the views of people who don't accept climate science for ideological reasons, but for anyone interested, a good list of common myths and responses is here: https://skepticalscience.com/

      Drake believes in climate change. In other news, he fitted out a 767 private jumbo jet and showed it off this week.

      And there is plenty of evidence that many people are prone to embrace end of the world scares. Just look at history. Human nature doesn't change, only the form of scare.

    I think B&j's are missing a trick here. I mean if the world got hotter, wouldn't they sell more of their cool hippy sludge?

    Regardless, Ben & Jerry's is one of the worst ice cream brands in the market. Overpriced crap !!
    This sort of propaganda goes to show where they stand.

    You sell ice cream. (profanity) off with your political bs. Major issue with retailer.

    Oh the hypocrisy.
    If this isn't a major issue with a retailer I don't know what is.
    Pledging against climate change and receiving a product contributing to carbon emissions.

    Leaving politics out of it, I found it hilarious. Adverse effects.

    There is no such thing as global warming or climate change. It took God billions of years to built earth so perfect that it will not cause any chaos. God knew all these first hand so He made it perfect. That still doesn’t mean we don’t look after it. But “climate change” is a total myth.

    All these “climate change” has something sinister going on behind it. First it was global warming, now they changing it to “climate change” after seeing that the world is actually getting colder. The world has been like this since the beginning and nothing happened to it. It has been like this cold and hot for thousand of years. Go with the negs!

    • Ononono on 16/05/2019 - 22:16

      You talk about climate change being a myth and then cite god as proof? Bahaha You clowns should start a comedy show, the jokes write themselves!

  • MementoMori on 16/05/2019 - 15:46

    I note how it does not mention the FREE scoop on the page… it's almost like they know it's dodgy.

    FREE SCOOP of Ice Cream from George Soros himself!!

    "Funding

    350.org does not disclose its donors. However, it has admitted to receiving funding from the Tides Foundation, a San Francisco-based donor-advised fund that has funneled hundreds of millions of dollars to liberal groups from donors and foundations wishing to remain anonymous. [24] Groups linked to George Soros and Tom Steyer have also contributed extensively to 350.org. [25]"

    I'd love to know how many people who believe the "experts" that we are 100% responsible for aclimate change, and that it's going to cause the end of the earth as we know it, also believed the "experts" about y2k. The end of the world was coming then as well, what a joke.

  • ONSALE on 16/05/2019 - 23:31

    This deal would have a lot more negative votes but some have been revoked what a ridiculous system where negative votes are suppressed.

  • barozgain on 19/05/2019 - 12:08

    Since now liberals won, will Ben&Jerry charge me back? ahahhaha

  • Lets Go Brandon on 19/05/2019 - 18:12

    Climate change cost Labor votes and Ben & Jerry's customers. WIN/WIN!
