The Search For “Green” Ice Cream
How could ice cream possibly be environmentally unfriendly? The culprit could be the refrigerated trucks in which they are transported. However, in Sweden – apparently one of the largest consumers of ice cream in the European Union – they are taking steps to make sure ice cream is a whole lot more “green.”
No, that doesn’t mean spinach-flavored ice cream. Treehugger reports that more Swedish ice cream distributors are looking into having their icy treats transported via the far more eco-friendly train. But, even better, Ben and Jerry’s European flavors are made close by in the Netherlands, and have been designated last year as climate neutral. That means a greener experience all around – from the cows who make the milk to more efficient logistics for transport.
