New Belgium beer & Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Support WildEarth Guardians (the Anti-Coal Crowd)

FORT COLLINS - New Belgium Brewing has joined forces with Ben & Jerry's to donate $100,000 to a California-based nonprofit that works to mobilize the snow-sports community to battle climate change.

The two "B-corp" companies, Fort Collins-based New Belgium and South Burlington, Vt.-based Ben & Jerry's, partnered to create a special beer and ice cream, with a portion of their proceeds going to Pacific Palisades, Calif.-based Protect Our Winters. The companies presented the check to POW on Friday during a celebration at Stoney's Bar and Grill in Denver.

...

In addition to fundraising for POW, the campaign encouraged people to generate letters of support for the Environmental Protection Agency's Clean Power Plan

I live in Colorado and these morons are trying to shut down all of our electrical generating capacity which is coal-fired (about 75% of total capacity) which means our rates will skyrocket........

I let the liquor store I frequent know that I won’t buy the stuff. They said quite a few folks have said the same.

If you are lucky that’s all that will happen. Likely you will also end up with insufficient generating capacity and brownouts.

Sit around complaining about the weather, while drinking beer and eating ice cream. - Yep that about sums up pajama boy liberals.

Ben and Jerry will get to write off that donation but the customers won’t. That’s what so wrong with these companies. Take Dannon Yogurt - Oooh, mail in the top of our over priced yogurt cup that you bought with your hard earned dollars and we’ll donate another fraction of a cent to breast cancer! If the sheeple were smart, but they aren’t, they would have saved the cost of postage and sent more $$$ to cancer and been able to take it off their own taxes.

B&J have built their entire fortune from something that comes out of cows.

Some Scientists theorize that GlobulWarmingClimateChangeGreenehouseGasses is caused by something ELSE that comes out of cows.

Ben & Jerry are Climate criminals!

That’s just too bad. I really enjoy the “toasty hop” flavor of a Fat Tire.

There’s lots more toasty hop-flavored beers out there.

New Belgium is dead to me. They are not the only beer on the block.

Cut Belgian products out years and years ago, never did buy Ben and jerry’s, always too overpriced and too crazy whacked out corporate policies that have continued under Unilever.
