Climate Scientist Rainn Wilson Says Hotcoldwetdry Endangers Ice Cream

Now, if there was anything to anthropogenic climate change threatening ice cream, I might have to go all Fascist. I’ll cut down on most snacks and stuff, but, not ice cream

Sorry Ice Cream Lovers—Rainn Wilson Just Told Us Climate Change Might “Endanger” the Treat

Sherman Potter Bull CookiesYesterday, if you walked through Union Square Park, you would have caught a glimpse of Rainn Wilson handing out ice cream to passersby—-and the reason why may surprise you.

The actor best known for his role in The Office as Dwight Schrute, Wilson has made it clear over the years that he is a huge advocate for climate change awareness, an example being when he briefly changed his name to “Rainnfall Heat Wave Extreme Winter Wilson.”

“I had this realization about 4 or 5 years ago that climate change is something that I’m passionate about, and climate change education, but all I was doing was sending out occasional angry tweets,” Wilson said in an interview with EatingWell with Dr. Gail Whiteman prior to the New York event. “I knew I needed to actually do something and get off my butt and not be a keyboard activist.”

So let’s backtrack: why hand out ice cream in the city? Fittingly at the start of New York Climate Week, Wilson, Whiteman and Tatham were focused on highlighting ice cream as a food that may be directly impacted by climate change.

“One of the things that scientists are talking about now is that we’re in danger of having severe limitations to some of the flavors that we’ve come to know and love and rely on, like vanilla, chocolate, strawberry and mango and pistachio [and coffee]. So it’s important to just bring some attention to that in a memorable, sticky way… sticky in two ways!”

And his multiple degrees in climatology should make us listen to him…oh, wait, he has a degree in drama and one in acting. So, he knows nothing. Those flavors will be just fine. They’ve survived many warm and cool periods, and will survive this one.

    Of course they will survive
    But Teach might a change in out climate affect their price or availability ?

    But Teach might a change in out climate affect their price or availability or quality? Of course the elites will no doubt have access to year round strawberries.

    Teach did you happen to notice the first real world test results for the Tesla semis working for Pepsi (Pepsi goes some,

    Highest daily miles 804
    Typical gross vehicle weight close to max
    Typical cargo weight about 2 to 4000 pounds less than diesel (battery weight)

    A diesel would burn about 50 gal going 400 miles
    100 gal going 800 miles
    Diesel is about 5 bucks a gal (hey somebody has to pay for those Saudis golf tournaments at Trump courses)
    The trucks are charging off gen 4 750v chargers.
    Dana can check on how many of those miles were deadhead (quite low)

    It’s just as well. With Bidenomics continuing, no one will be able to afford fancy ice cream soon.

    Beef is already off the menu for many families.

      Commenter: Beef is already off the menu for many families.

      According to the WSJ beef prices are high because of supply shortages caused by drought, the pandemic (reduced workforce) and general increased costs. The article said ground beef prices are up 20% since 2020!! Chicken and pork have had only modest increases in price over the same time, likely related to NOT being pastured. There are no reports of protein deficiencies so Americans may be responding to market forces and buying other sources. Sho’ nuff, beef consumption has been falling the past decade while chicken and pork consumption has increased.

      Because of extreme drought in Texas, Oklahoma and Nebraska, farmers were required to purchase supplemental feed forcing a 20% increase in costs. As a result cattle ranchers have reduced their herds. The article says it takes 18-22 mo to raise beef to market maturity so turning the “ship” around will be a slow process.

      The article is worth reading.

      Not discussed in the article is that pork and chicken are healthier choices. That said, few things are as satisfying as a perfectly cooked ribeye!!

      BTW, inflation is higher in the UK, France, Australia, Germany, Russia, EU, Brazil, India, Canada… How did Bidenomics do all this??

      • drowningpuppies says:

        Another nonsensical copy&paste from the Rimjob.
        And the aside concerning inflation in other countries to defend Bidenomics is to laugh.

    Carbon boy-might not you offer some proof that they affect those things?

  6. Dana says:

    In truly important news, Blue Bell has been producing a lemon ice cream!

    I’m still mystified why anyone assigns any credence to anything blurted out by those whose sole qualifications are that they are professional athletes and/or actors.

    I’d sooner take life advice from a NYC junkie raving from a puddle of their own making behind an alley dumpster, they certainly have a firmer grasp on reality at least.
