This fall, we kicked off a Joy & Justice Roadshow to bring our 3-part mission to life in an interactive experience for our employees and customers. We had fun exploring and being reminded of what makes Ben & Jerry’s who we are. It has been an adventure from idea to 70+ Ben & Jerry’s employees painting the bus by hand, to traveling to 5+ cities and sharing over 3,000 sweet scoops. We'll be back on the road next Spring!?

It's Climate Week! We're proud to be working to reduce the climate impact of our dairy production, one dairy farm at a time. Right now, 7 farms we work with in the US and 10 in Europe have signed up to work toward lowering their greenhouse gas emissions through our Low-Carbon Dairy project. ??

When Ben & Jerry's were informed of a government policy that made it incredibly difficult for asylum seekers to gain work in the Netherlands, they knew they had to act. They launched a multi-channel campaign, "Half Baked Ice Cream for a Half Baked Policy", combining the brand's creativity and determination to foster positive change. Utilising #YouTube to spread the message and inform the public, Ben & Jerry's were able to accrue over 11,000 signatures opposing the regulation within six months of launching their campaign. Fleur Osté, Benelux Business Leader for Ben & Jerry's, guides us through the policy's mission statement, ideas, and results, all the while offering valuable guidance on how to make a meaningful social impact with marketing.
