The Ben & Jerry’s Tesla will tour around the country from San Diego to Miami as part of their #SaveOurSwirled tour which starts in April and runs through Halloween. While ice cream is it's main business, Ben and Jerry's wants customers to know that protecting the planet is a top company priority. “We have to take action now, this is the most urgent thing we’re working on,” said Ben & Jerry’s CEO Jostein Solheim of the comapny's push to encourage people to take action against climate change. Ben & Jerry’s is partnering with the international grassroots activist group Avaaz for this summer's #SaveOurSwirled tour. Ben & Jerry’s has made a habit of pairing ice cream and activism, it has thrown its sweet influence behind sustainability, legalizing gay marriage, and Occupy Wall Street.
