Food Giants Back Climate Action
Representatives from General Mills, Mars, Unilever, Ben & Jerry’s, and Nestlé appeared at an event on Capitol Hill calling for strong government action on climate. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse and Representative Chris Gibson hosted the event with Ceres. A letter written by the participating companies was published in the Washington Post and Financial Times saying, “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 effect real change.”
