O: Obesity



YA Causes/Tough Issues continues with
O: Obesity

According to the CDC, childhood obesity has more than doubled in children and tripled in adolescents in the past 30 years.

Today’s song: Move Your Body by Beyoncé. The song was part of a campaign to end childhood obesity--one that started with First Lady, Michelle Obama. 


I ain't worried doing me tonight,
A little sweat ain't never hurt nobody,
Don't just stand there on the wall,
Everybody just move your body

    I can't believe the changes since I was a kid.

    And these kids aren't well-nourished. That's horrible.
