With summer approaching (in the Northern Hemisphere), we begin to pull our shorts and bathing suits out of the closet and see if we can can fit into them. If they’re a bit snug (a lot snug) we begin thinking of losing a few pounds.
We’re not obese, but want to be comfortable in our clothes, can breathe without puffing up the stairs, and can run easily if we have to chase after a wandering Alzheimer’s patient.
Also, by losing some of those pounds, we may be helping the environment and cutting down on global warming!
”What!” you say. “Obesity/overweight and global warming are connected?”
Yes, a study has come out that obesity may contribute to global warming. My co-blogger, Liz Lewis, also writes at b5 media’s Health Bolt. You may find this blogpost interesting, Fact or Fiction: Obesity is Contributing to Global Warming?.
What will they think of next? Let us know what you think.

I think we’ve all spent way too much time focusing on one cause, then another, then another – rather than just getting into the habit of always making overall well-rounded earth- and health-friendly choices.
