Coca-Cola is to join the global fight against obesity by displaying calorie counts, promoting exercise and not marketing to children under 12. The ...
Like Justine Greening, I can't understand the arguments made by some against spending 0.7% of GNI to relieve suffering overseas. They should remember that 7p in every £10 is a small slice of our national income when compared with the spectre of people dying unnecessarily, living without access to education or even clean water.
In the UK, 15 million plastic bottles are used every day, and, despite increasingly improving waste disposal services, 80% of these are not recycled. Everyday approximately one billion bottles and cans are dumped in parks, rivers oceans and landfill sites - almost 400 million of those in America alone.
A couple of weeks ago Coca-Cola launched a new advert in the UK called Be OK! The advert offers consumers suggestions for activities which, when combined, can help to burn off the 139 calories in a can of Coca-Cola.
The first MP or chief executive to swallow their pride, admit that we got it wrong and start to improve things will get a healthy hand shake from me along with personal training for life!
The world's largest food companies have been named and shamed because they fall short of ethical standards. Oxfam said global brands including Nest...
A mother-of-eight died had a fatal heart attack after drinking up to 10 litres of Coca-Cola a day, an inquest has heard. The large quantities of t...
Strangely enough, according to some commentators, the health impacts of this scandal could actually have been positive, with the lean horsemeat making the burgers healthier. But somehow I don't think this was done with our health in mind.
The public Christmas is over and the private one can begin. The last party was the Hatfields lunch. A wonderful gathering, rather an antidote to every...
If you've already taken our "which Christmas Jumper are you" quiz and you've checked out some of the best jumpers on offer, then it's time to enter ou...
Look, we don't really know why someone would bother making an awesome ad for Coca-Cola when they weren't actually being paid to do so. But that's what...
Bond is famous for only ever drinking Martini - shaken not stirred - and yet in this film he only drinks beer. And not just any beer - Bond only drinks Heineken, because they sponsored the production of the movie.
A sports car won't make you grow a bigger penis and a spritz of Chanel will never bag you a Brad Pitt so don't buy into it. A smear of lipstick won't leave you looking like Kate Moss and all the isotonic sports drinks in the world won't give you thighs like Chris Hoy.
So yes, the branding rules are strict. And yes, people's attentions have been more focused on their TVs than shop windows. But small businesses can - and have - used the Games to their advantage. BrandGB is a powerful thing; so let's use it both now and beyond London 2012.
There have been many Coca-Cola adverts over the years, but this one is a bit of a beauty, boasting as it does a brand-new trick shot sport: straw thro...
The pub industry is rapidly gearing up for the next big event that we hope we can use to salvage our increasingly torrid 2012 trade: the Olympics.
Yesterday the Olympic torch relay passed the top of my road. As a graduate (or "NEET" as we're called in the current climate), it was more intrigue than patriotism that caused me to break from my Jeremy Kyle marathon and leaving the house. For one reason or another, people were in excellent spirits.
Last week I attended a party thrown by Bacardi to celebrate their 150th birthday party. At one point, I found myself stood next to a prolific music bl...

You do not hear much about the people in advertising; the ad agencies? Yes, maybe - but hardly anything about the people.
A recent study has revealed that more than half of leading cola soft drink brands contain small traces of alcohol. Researchers from the National ...
Whether you find the video above cute or nauseating is likely to say more about your attitude towards Coca-Cola than it does towards the human race. ...
The Future Flames idea is sick... and something that I feel really strongly about. It takes young kids from different parts of the country that are really doing great things for their area - these kids are pushing positivity despite the issues or problems that life has thrown at them. These kids have used their passions to inspire others and having met some of them - its pretty humbling. They have all done amazing things and it just really drills down to what it's all about. These youngsters are our heroes of tomorrow and I feel very lucky to be involved with such a thing.
As the opening ceremony approaches, a steady drip of 'sweatshop' and 'forced labour' allegations over poor conditions for workers manufacturing official Olympics merchandise have emerged.
Fizzy drinks usually hit the headlines because of their health hazards and sky-high sugar content. However, Diet Coke and Coca Cola are making waves f...
