Speaker A
A little bit of ice cream helps with everything. It's really hard to be angry or stressed out and eat ice cream at the same time. So, we're offering all the delegates free ice cream for the rest of the week. All this is for us the
Speaker A
accumulation of an 18-month campaign called Save Our Swirled, where we have really tried to engage our fans around the world and policymakers in getting a binding climate agreement here in Paris. For us, this isn't about polar bears. This
Speaker A
is about people, vulnerable people, our farming communities around the world where we buy our ingredients. Many of our business partners are directly affected in the first wave, and we're all affected yet. So this is
Speaker A
something that as a business we have to speak up on. We have to do our part to come up with solutions. A good deal will be a deal that puts in ambitious binding goals that ensure that the developing world has a fair shot at
Speaker A
developing and getting out of poverty in a way that's sustainable for all of us and contributes positively for all of us. You know, I think a just deal is a deal that looks beyond Paris and says we're going to be committed to this. We're
Speaker A
going to come back together. We're going to reassess our goals. We want to invest in innovation and technology to really make this happen. Now, you know, a lot of people are going to tell you that it's really, really hard and it's complicated.
Speaker A
At all, this is not complicated. This is about very simple, straightforward actions to limit global warming to that one and a half degrees, only two degree threshold. There are lots of practical and simple things that you can do in
Speaker A
your everyday life, and you can call out and make your voice be heard with the policymakers and with the businesses that you support through your purchases.
