Australia 'Ideas Summit' Maps New National Path

A free-spirited summit aimed at soliciting innovative ideas to strengthen Australia's future concluded Sunday with proposals ranging from a preventative health agency funded by a junk-food tax to making Australia the world's 'greenest' economy by 2020. Some 1,000 experts, activists, politicians, and celebrities put forward more than 40 proposals after two days of brainstorming. (Christian Science Monitor, Monday)
