something politically positive...

Michelle Obama talks about her nationwide campaign to fight childhood obesity called "Let's Move."


Political party preferences aside, I think childhood obesity is a serious concern and am thankful for the media/conversations/awareness this campaign has launched. I look forward to hearing how they intend to achieve these goals - especially from a "top down" approach.

Berkeley has some pretty creative solutions that I am really proud of... such as Alice Waters' Elementary School Edible Garden Project and the Berkeley Ecology Center's plans to help local farmers markets accept food stamps.

What do you think?
(childhood obesity... not if you like Michelle or not :)
