[i]”Obese and overweight people require more fuel to transport them and the food they eat, and the problem will worsen as the population literally swells in size, a team at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine says.”[/i]
[i]”Because thinner people eat less and are more likely to walk than rely on cars, a slimmer population would lower demand for fuel for transportation and for agriculture, Edwards said.”[/i]
Are these people serious? Should we put a scale in stores and only allow certain foods if your over a certain weight? Will someone come and take my twinkies and oreos? :0
When is enough enough?
A thought, your “healthy” vegitarians are a very gassy lot. I would bet that their increased flatulence based on their diets are adding to the green house gases, and we have GOT to do something about them! B-)
