Coke’s green initiatives= VERY refreshing news!!! Re Gigi’s suggestion (& to prove Robbie wrong! :0) :

It’d be wonderful if Coke would reach out to Decatur’s sister city, the village of Bousse in Burkina Faso, West Africa, to replace their well. The well provided by a Decatur group years ago is no longer functioning. They are in dire need of a water source. A presentation was given on it at the April 5th Commission Meeting. The City folks should have the contact info for the well project.

Like I said, Coke has it’s faults and when the bottom line is proft, those things tend to happen.

Anyway, here’s an article on the plastic bottle recycling plant Coke is now operating in Spartanburg.

BP sure is quick to dispense with workplace safety for this indispensable commodity.

That’s probably right.
