If you want your nice smart phones you'll just have to accept the environmental destruction that goes along with it. Corporations like Siemens will live through wars and famines and the heat death of the universe, probably. this, and vibrating trees, here .

    Fanta wasn't just first popularized in Nazi Germany, IIRC its creation in the first place was a ploy by Coca Cola to continue selling soda to them

      It wasn't Coca Cola. It was the German importer and distributor of Coca Cola and he had to do it because the US prohibited American companies from trading with Germany during the war and the distributor needed to find an alternative because he couldn't import the sirup anymore. And because of rationing he couldn't get fresh fruit so he had to use orange peels or something like that.
