Coca-Cola just did something big for the environment.  All versions of Coke sold in 20-ounce bottles will now come in bottles made with 100% recycled plastic.  The new bottles hit stores this week…….. A place in Oklahoma called Noble Smokin’ Joe’s Barbecue kept getting prank calls from three little kids who really wanted some French fries.  So one of the owners set out to track them down and get them those fries. It blew up on Facebook, and the three girls, aged 5, 9, and 11, were found.  Now they’ve gotten their fries and then some. The owner is planning French fry parties for them at school.  She also set up a GoFundMe to start savings accounts for them.  They’ll get the money when they turn 18, so they can use it for college or whatever their future plans are. ……………..And finally………..  

MacKenzie Scott is the ex-wife of Amazon’s Jeff Bezos, and when she pledges to give away money . . . she does . . . big-time.  She just announced that she’s giving away $640 MILLION, split among hundreds of small non-profits. Scott gave away more than $2 billion last year, and nearly $4 billion in 2022.  She’s still worth $36.2 billion, so it isn’t like she’s clipping coupons.  But still, you have to appreciate her donating all that money NOW so that it can help immediately, rather than just promising to leave money to charity someday.
