  • Coca-Cola La Historia Negra De Las Aguas Negras
    Coca-Cola La historia negra de las aguas negras Gustavo Castro Soto CIEPAC COCA-COLA LA HISTORIA NEGRA DE LAS AGUAS NEGRAS (Primera Parte) La Compañía Coca-Cola y algunos de sus directivos, desde tiempo atrás, han sido acusados de estar involucrados en evasión de impuestos, fraudes, asesinatos, torturas, amenazas y chantajes a trabajadores, sindicalistas, gobiernos y empresas. Se les ha acusado también de aliarse incluso con ejércitos y grupos paramilitares en Sudamérica. Amnistía Internacional y otras organizaciones de Derechos Humanos a nivel mundial han seguido de cerca estos casos. Desde hace más de 100 años la Compañía Coca-Cola incide sobre la realidad de los campesinos e indígenas cañeros ya sea comprando o dejando de comprar azúcar de caña con el fin de sustituir el dulce por alta fructuosa proveniente del maíz transgénico de los Estados Unidos. Sí, los refrescos de la marca Coca-Cola son transgénicos así como cualquier industria que usa alta fructuosa. ¿Se ha fijado usted en los ingredientes que se especifican en los empaques de los productos industrializados? La Coca-Cola también ha incidido en la vida de los productores de coca; es responsable también de la falta de agua en algunos lugares o de los cambios en las políticas públicas para privatizar el vital líquido o quedarse con los mantos freáticos. Incide en la economía de muchos países; en la industria del vidrio y del plástico y en otros componentes de su fórmula. Además de la economía y la política, ha incidido directamente en trastocar las culturas, desde Chamula en Chiapas hasta Japón o China, pasando por Rusia.

The agency is governed by a 15-member board of directors, which includes three public appointees and 12 downtown property As we look back on the past year and embark on the one ahead, the facts are undeniable: Downtown Miami owners, business owners, and/or residents.

With dozens of a multi-disciplinary team under the oversight of the executive director. cranes proliferating our skyline and new construction on the rise, a livable and walkable urban core has gone from being a promise to a reality.

This marks a population growth of more than 100 percent over the past decade – painting a picture of one of the fastest growing and youngest demographics in the country. Although the past year has welcomed a flurry of exciting developments, next year holds even more promise. Yet, we don’t need to tell you of this transformation; you see it unfold each and every day.

  • Metrorail Line to Miami International Airport Almost Complete
    Posted on Mon, Jan. 02, 2012 Metrorail line to Miami International Airport almost complete By ALFONSO [email protected] A Metrorail train heads in to Government Station, Wednesday, April 13, 2011. (Marice Cohn Band/Miami Herald file photo) One of the most expensive and complex transportation projects currently under construction in South Florida will be finished this year: the Metrorail extension to Miami International Airport. The new line of the elevated train, from Earlington Heights Station to a new public transportation center under construction just east of the airport, will be in operation in the spring. It will be formally called AirportLink and is the first significant Metrorail extension since the system was inaugurated in 1984. “AirportLink will provide a fast, reliable Metrorail link to MIA for millions of residents, visitors and employees who travel to and from MIA every year,” a Miami-Dade Transit press release said. “With this project, Miami-Dade joins the ranks of the great urban zones in the world with fast public transportation systems connecting to their airports.” The opening of the new line will be the first to extend Metrorail to the airport, precisely the place where Miami-Dade transportation engineers originally wanted to take the elevated train system that currently only travels from Dadeland in south Miami-Dade to the Palmetto Station located in the northwest area of the county close to Hialeah. For multiple reasons, including political ones, the original Metrorail was never taken to the airport and eventually only went as far as the Okeechobee Station in Hialeah. It was not until 2003 that a small Metrorail extension was approved, from Okeechobee to the Palmetto Station west of the Palmetto Expressway.

  • Sergio Zyman
    SERGIO ZYMAN I spoke with Sergio on a wide number of topics in December of 2009 relating to Killing Giants, but our conversation has helped me think through a good number of complex issues and has served as the source material for more than a few blog posts. If you’re not familiar, Sergio was Coca Cola’s first Chief Marketing Officer, has done extended stints at rival Pepsi and elsewhere. He’s also a prolific author, having written The End of Marketing As We Know It and others. So without further ado, here’s my slightly abridged interview with Sergio. Sergio Zyman: People love to talk about change but at the end, some people hate change because it's uncomfortable. Most of change happens on the edges. It never really happens on the core. Nobody really goes and attacks an existing brand on the basis of its core value proposition. You should try to go and attack it on the edges because you tend to get less defence from whoever you're attacking. There are ton of stories in that regard. It has to come out with something that was captured in the edge. The Sprite campaign—the "Obey Your Thirst" campaign was—was different, because Sprite was a brand that got created in the 50s only because the company had excess production capacity in the UK and the Brits used to drink lemonade, you know. So somebody came up with the idea that maybe they could launch a lemon- lime drink that had absolutely no proprietary or anything, you know.
