So Red Bull doesn't actually 'give you wings'

Anyone who's bought a can of Red Bull in the US is entitled to cash as a lawsuit finds the drink doesn't really "give you wings."

In many parts of the world, watching a movie still comes with a built-in break. Cinemas in countries such as Iceland, Switzerland, Egypt, Turkey, and India often pause films midway for an intermission, especially during longer movies.

Usually lasting around 10 to 15 minutes, the break gives audiences time to use the restroom, grab snacks, stretch their legs, or chat before the second half begins.

In India especially, the interval remains a familiar part of the moviegoing experience, keeping cinema trips relaxed, social, and a little old-fashioned.

Sweden has become so effective at managing waste that it actually imports trash from other European countries to help supply its waste-to-energy facilities. Instead of sending most household garbage to landfills, Sweden recycles a large share and burns much of the remainder in specialized plants that generate electricity and district heating.
As a result, only a tiny percentage of the country’s household waste ends up buried in landfills.

The system also allows Sweden to charge other countries for processing some of their waste, turning unwanted garbage into both energy and economic value.

Waste incineration isn’t pollution-free it still produces carbon emissions and requires careful management but Sweden’s approach shows how waste that might otherwise sit in landfills can be used as a resource.
