Do These Ideas Give You Any Ideas?
Canada limits the amount of caffeine in energy drinks such as Red Bull
, Rockstar and Monster Energy. In 2011 caffeine was limited to 180 milligrams per drink - about as much as in a medium cup of coffee. The drinks have to have labels listing the amount of caffeine, vitamins and other ingredients. They also have to have warnings that the drinks aren't recommended for children or pregnant/breast feeding women and shouldn't be mixed with alcohol. According to government estimates, 7 million energy drinks are sold in Canada monthly. It seems Canada is leading the fight in a new "energy crisis".
Cornell's Center for Behavioral Economics in Child Nutrition Programs discovered a cheap way to get school children to eat more fruit. Researchers went to 3 school cafeterias that keep fruit in stainless-steel bins behind sneeze guards. Instead, they put the fruit in colorful bowls and attractive baskets near the cash register, where students had more time to look at it. The researchers expected a 30% increase in the amount of fruit purchased. Instead, there was a 103% increase. Basically, marketing techniques used in supermarkets were used in school cafeterias. It's a new "school of thought'.
California passed a law in 2011 that prohibits children ages 14-18 from using tanning beds - even if they have their parents' permission. This law failed to pass in 2007, but in 2009 the International Agency for Research on Cancer (part of the World Health Organization) classified UV-emitting tanning devices as carcinogenic to humans. Reviews of more than 20 epidemiological studies had shown the risk of skin cancer was increased 75% when people started using tanning devices before age 30. Although California is the first state to have age limits for UV tanning, Brazil has banned tanning beds altogether - and with no major "tan-trums".
Wendy Luhabe thinks stay-at-home moms should be given 10% of their husband's earnings. Who is Ms Luhabe? In 1999 she was recognized as one of the world's 50 leading women entrepreneurs by the U.S.-based Star Group. In 2003 she founded the Women Investment Portfolio Holdings and became Chancellor of Johannesburg University in 2006. She believes a "mommy salary" would value the raising of children, that money is what we use to show value and no contribution to the world is more valuable than children. If you think her idea is absurd, Ms Luhabe also believes it's absurd ideas that change the world.
