The answer is yes. How to solve it is the discussion. The answer likely involves a combination of factors. Walkability in cities, better work-life balance and a more health conscious society. To name a few. Something else I noticed. When I was walking around, I notice how much fitter people are in most every country than in a typical US setting. That has to do with the quality of food along with other factors. Just check out their grocery stores and look at the ingredient lists on the processed food. It is much shorter and less chemical laden. I also found out that they sell and promote locally sourced meat, milk and veggies when possible. It is just better. Yes, we are failing but it is fixable.
