Prohibit the Sale of Energy Drinks to Underaged Children


Prohibit the Sale of Energy Drinks to Underaged Children
The issue
Too many businesses around the globe profit from the sale of energy drinks to underaged children. These high-caffeine beverages have been linked to serious health concerns in children including heart problems, neurological effects, and obesity. Studies have concluded that energy drinks can have a greater impact on heart health than other caffeinated beverages like coffee or tea. Furthermore, energy drinks have no place in the diet of children and adolescents. It has become clear that regulations must be put in place to limit the exposure of these harmful drinks to our youth. It’s our responsibility as a society to protect the health and future of our young generation. We must make a stand now and petition our legislators to prohibit the sale of energy drinks to underaged children. Please add your voice to ours and sign this crucial petition.
