Archaea Intervention Needed
What factors have contributed to the increase in numbers
And percentage of plus sized persons in the US?

Is it mostly diet and a lack of activity?

It seems that every society follows a pattern of starting off with thinner, smaller people but after they become economically successful the society produces obese people.

Many scientists are researching as a matter of public health how to address it but only Singapore seems to have found a holistic approach. Any more observations other than the obvious?
