In this article, it talks about the steps pop companies are taking in order to keep up with the ever growing child obesity rate. Coca-Cola Co. is broadening distribution of its low-calorie drinks and said it would put calorie counts on the front of its packaging around the world as it ramps up global efforts to counter criticism its sugary drinks are fueling obesity. The Atlanta-based beverage giant also promised to sponsor physical activity programs and reiterated its commitment to not market its drinks to children under 12 years old in each of the more than 200 countries and territories that it operates.This article discusses Coca-Cola's efforts to improve its public image with initiatives like restricting advertising to children. Personally I think it is a great idea...Too many fat children.
