What needs to be changed?
Obesity needs to be changed. Make students educated in the art of cooking. Allow them to make delicious foods whilst being healthy. Many students would rather have fresh cooked meals than the slop the lunch lines provide. This allows both parties to be satisfied and healthy.

This country isn't just carbon neutral — it's carbon negative TedTalk Summary and Questions
In a small country in the border of the two most populated
countries on the planet, India and China. This small country is named Bhutan
they have a forest cover of 75% the country. In doing so they are able to
battle their carbon emission and negate them. They are doing these things
through a few national programs and in doing so they are created a fund. They
are using this fund to motivate others and themselves to learn the amazing
effects of having such things. They gave an example of a tiger. The tiger was
first found in the country in their sub-tropical jungle, then later they were
able to find that same tiger in four-thousand feet above sea level. They were
able to do this because they connected all the jungles that are present in
their country. Also they are able to create a national movement in order to
inspire all others to move towards a better world. You may look different but
we are all having the same goal we want to better ourselves and the world.

will die from the fallout. The fallout is just as dangerous as the initial
explosion. If you are able to do this then you may have a chance of surviving. Another
