New coke where to get

Starting healthy new habits is hard. Catching the latest virus going around (as we've all been reminded the past few years) is incredibly easy. Wouldn't it be nice if establishing an exercise routine or system to keep up with your email was as easy as catching Covid? Maybe it can be (or at least nearly). New research from top researchers including Wharton's Katy Milkman and Angela Duckworth of Grit fame tested a simple self-improvement hack called the copy-paste technique. The study demonstrated that one of the easiest, most effective ways to change your life is to simply catch new habits from friends and associates. The easiest route to healthy habits is to catch them from others. Most of us have experienced the phenomenon of catching habits from other people in our own lives. Maybe your college roommate was the tidy type and living with them helped break you of your own more messy ways (that's my personal example -- thanks, Jenn!). Or maybe you started … [Read more...] about The Copy-Paste Technique Is the Easiest, Most Effective Self-Improvement Hack, a New Wharton Study Finds

- A + A (Aug 4): Australia’s new Government rejected plans for a major coal project near the Great Barrier Reef, marking a sharp change in policy in one of the biggest exporters of the polluting fossil fuel. Minister for Environment and Water Tanya Plibersek said Thursday that she intended to not approve mining tycoon Clive Palmer’s Central Queensland Coal project due to the likelihood of “unacceptable impacts” on the world heritage site. It’s the first time an Australian Minister has refused a coal mine under the country’s Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act, her office said. The announcement comes on the same day Australia’s Lower House of Parliament passed legislation to cut the country’s emissions by 43% from 2005 levels by 2030 in a major policy victory for the Labor government that came to power in May after a climate-focused election. There is a 10-day period of public comment on the decision and the proponents of the mine were contacted, … [Read more...] about Australia knocks back major coal project near Great Barrier Reef

The word describes a corporation’s expressions of environmentalist concerns, especially as a cover for products, policies or activities which are detrimental to the environment or the exaggeration of its sustainability credentials. Greenwashing is the inverse of corporate social responsibility (CSR), a business model designed to help an organization keep itself accountable for the impact it has on its community and the environment. It attempts to positively maximize the former and minimize the latter. Some companies currently at the vanguard of CSR practices include Patagonia , Starbucks and Apple , whose CEO, Tim Cook, announced in a tweet in 2020: “By 2030, Apple’s entire … [Read more...] about How Companies Can Avoid Greenwashing And Make A Real Difference In Their Environmental Impact

People who are familiar with the story of Honest Tea may recall that I launched the company with my former Yale School of Management professor Barry Nalebuff. With Barry as board chair and me as the "TeaEO," we made a dynamic duo that built the idea from a startup with five thermoses and an empty Snapple bottle to a national brand acquired by the Coca-Cola Company in 2011. Barry, who kept his job as a Yale professor, is still a close friend and occasionally provides advice or helps edit our label messages. But as we mark Honest Tea's 20th anniversary this spring, there is another founder who didn't have her name on the label but has been the soul of the brand: my wife, Julie Farkas. In 1997, when I thought about leaving a promising job at Calvert mutual funds to launch a startup in an industry where I had no relevant experience (except that I drank beverages), Julie was the first person to support the idea. Even though we had three boys under the age of 6, including a … [Read more...] about Why My Spouse Was My Most Important Asset in Launching My Company
