I sympathize, Marit, and especially as the voting is now underway.  There is no way to refute it now, but it does show a remarkable lack of green consciousness in whoever had the idea for the poster, and in whoever approved its use.  

Feeding bottles leave deeper carbon footprints than breastfeeding, as we all know.  Depending on what is in the bottle, the carbon footprint may be deep enough to lose a bicycle or a baby in!  

If you care enough about the Green party to get in touch and offer to explain why this particular image is at odds with their top issue (environmentalism, presumably), then do so even after the election.  If you don't care for them, then blog about it mercilessly.
