Canada is country #19 in the highest beer drinkers per capita, yet WE'RE the problem? Lol. I wonder when Fox News is finally going to admit they're a subsidiary of The Onion.

to store whatever Canadians eat besides doughnuts and poutine.

WTF? I wouldn't care if this was put in the opinions section, but this is in their science news section. What a bunch of tools

As always, there's the Fox "blame everyone one except ourselves" spin on it, but it isn't fake news.

I have a beer fridge, and its at least 10+ years old. Im sure there are way more beat up old fridges in any of the American gettos or million trailer parks.

I like my doughnuts fresh... Same w/ my poutine. I don't put that shit in the fridge. These guys should get their facts straight :rolleyes:

Someone from the U of A did a study? This is how boring Canada is that this is what is studied?

I like how they mention that there is no effect in places that use Hydro or Nuclear as the energy source.

So how about we just look at the source. The Gas and Coal powered plants. Even if you are able to reduce the higher consumption beer fridges those plants will still be there generating electricity and causing harm to the environment.

If you say the poutine and doughnuts sentence out loud, you can almost hear O'Reilly typing it.

Samuel Adams.....yuck.

Although most of the heavily commercialized Canadian beers don't taste much better. No beer fridge here though. Beer is just the #1 priority in the real fridge.

Is it just me or am I the only one who noticed that those are really old can designs they used for the picture?

Yeah, beer fridges. That's what's killing the planet. Not 100s of M1 Abrams tanks that use what, 4 gallons of fuel to start? Nope damn Canadians with beer fridges.
