Coca-Cola is donating 7+ million servings of water and sports drinks to Japan right now with more pledged as logistically possible to deliver.

Let's see more companies ante up.

3. Props to Coke. Good on 'em.
But you'd be hard-pressed to catch me consuming their products.

8. The Coca-Cola Company's response to the 2004 Tsunami was impressive.

Japan is not a developing country and the simple direct approach was probably the best response.
