How do we combat the obesity epidemic?

[Hermit For Peace]

Some of these people have already mentioned, but....

Start making PE in school mandatory again. Teach kids good health habits that they will take with them into adulthood.

Instead of building more buildings, build more parks and trails and things for communities to do outside. And if Pokemon Go type of games help in the process, then so be it.

More commercials on all electronic-type devices that show people eating healthy food "together", making it a big social thing to eat healthy with all your friends.

Many people overeat because they are lonely, or have internal problems that need addressing. I don't really know how to go about helping with this problem, but becoming aware of it is the first step.

Somehow we need to make it cool to raise social awareness that being healthy is the best thing since sliced bread. Everyone wants to be healthy so join in the movement.
