In this video, British chef Jamie Oliver presents the issue of childhood obesity, particularly in America and urges us to all do something about it. The First Lady, Michelle Obama, recently launched her “Let’s Move” campaign in February to raise awareness about childhood obesity.
According to Oliver, the current generation of children is set to live 10 years fewer than their parents because of obesity.
But what can each of us do to make a difference? Taking the decision to eat fresh, local foods that are organic where possible is a first step. And sharing our knowledge of food and cooking with others or supporting those who do is another. Other ideas are offered in the video so please watch it and share your comments and ideas below.
