Colorado Schools = No Soda

So Colorado schools are taking a BIG leap in helping to promote the health and well being of their students by banning all sodas from the campuses of their K-12 education. Soda companies have been notorious for infecting cash strapped school districts by offering them a little money and then planting their soda machines all over campus. Of course they reap ten fold what they give the district and they have a good contract that allows the machines to basically stay there forever while the children suffer later in life with caffine addictions and health issues like diabetes. I love the direction the school board is taking and I hope that the results from this experiment encourage other school districts to follow suit. It is time we stand up to these companies that destroy our health and promote things that are good for a change like maybe milk or God forbid even WATER!
