Ben and Jerry's, at it again!

I love me some Ben and Jerry's Ice cream. Even if they sold out a little. Last week they held a protest of genetically engineered salmon currently being examined by the FDA in front of the white house, using their flavor "Something's Fishy" (really just Phish Food) to try to get the word out. You can read about it here at Grist. I wish every protest used tasty ice cream as bait!

Grist also has this article, outlining what President Obama has (and perhaps more importantly, hasn't) done for the environment. Very interesting. Not sure exactly how I feel about it, considering the fact that the author brings in other aspects of the Obama Administration somewhat unnecessarily. But it's true, we've heard very little from our President on environmental issues. You'd think in this economic climate it's about time to take chances on some new industries to revitalize. If we continue to be passive about the green sector, we will (and already ARE!) be surpassed by other countries.
