JAMA -- The Growing Political Movement Against Soft Drinks in Schools, November 6, 2002, Fried and Nestle 288 (17): 2181 (#)

„Recently, several school districts across the country have refused to enter into deals with soft drink companies after protests by parents, students and school officials.11 In February 2002, the Oakland school district banned all sales of soda and candy. In August, the Los Angeles school board voted to take soft drinks off cafeteria menus and end the sale of soft drinks in vending machines by 2004. This action is especially significant since the Los Angeles district is so large (677 schools and 736 000 students) and its schools sell $4.5 million worth of sodas annually.12 These actions signal a growing movement to oust soft drinks from schools. These actions will most likely decrease soft drink companies' support for schools, but for many schools, contracts with soda companies are a significant source of revenue.“

WPS#1431 The Industrial Pollution Projection System -- Part 2 (#)

„Figure 4.1 clearly illustrates the extreme sectoral variation in pollutant intensity, ranging from Fertilizers and Pesticides (ISIC 3512) with 105.3 risk-weighted pounds of TRI releases and transfers per $1,000 of product shipped, to Soft Drinks and Carbonated Water (ISIC 3134), with only 0.22 pounds per $1,000. Despite a few surprises, such as the fifteenth ranking of the Musical Instruments sector, Table 4.1 generally confirms the intuition that the most intensive sectors in terms of toxic waste per dollar of output are industrial chemicals, plastics, paper and metals. The middle-ranked sectors are associated with consumer products such as electrical appliances, textiles, and cleaning preparations, followed by the high shipment value (and consequently relatively low intensity) machine-tool industry, with the food and drink sectors filling the least intensive rankings.“

„   When a shortage of lemon essence during World War II threatened the manufacture of soft drinks for the more than one million American GIs on leave in Australia, lemon myrtle was quickly pressed into service. While the tree’s leaves undoubtedly did an excellent job quenching the thirst of the boys away from home, most of the rainforest’s stock of lemon myrtle was felled in the process, and the tree became endangered. Some limited essential oil production continued in the region in the 1950s, but by this time the tree’s genetic lineage had dwindled considerably, and by the late ’80s early ’90s, the tree was listed as a “rare” species.“

In 1970, the average U.S. consumer drank 36 gallons of coffee and 23 gallons of carbonated soft drinks.
