An awful lot of bullets ... the study estimated up to an extra one billion tonnes of CO2 is added a year in a population of one billion overweight people.

who do you think farts more... a fat person or a thin person?

A recent study by the Harvard School of Public Health found that a startling two-thirds of Americans are overweight; even more startling, it found that 28.7 percent of adult American men and 34.5 percent of American women were clinically obese.

Perhaps the worst statistic of all - -20% of American children are now clinically obese, according to recent government figures, and upwards of 51% are overweight. And these numbers will only get worse.

If you are right in your assumption could be something to worry about... 2thirds of Chinese population overweight. Awful lot of extra Co2 emmision

So's starving children... UNICEF estimates that 6 million Ethiopian children under the age of 5 are at risk and that more than 120,000 have only about a month to live.

but hey.. as long as the good obese Americans get their burgers and bargain buckets....like you say who gives a f***

The major concern was with fat cows farting.....

Like all ruminants, cows are constantly emitting methane -- a greenhouse gas that is 23 times more powerful than carbon dioxide -- from both ends.

German agriculture is responsible for 133 million tons of CO2-equivalent emissions, bringing it close to the level of emissions attributable to road traffic (152 million tons).

So when you add up the rest of the world : Africa an estimated 230 million cattle, while India hold's the world's largest cattle population with 283.1 million. The United States has 98 million head of cattle, while China has 130 million head. That`s an awful lot of emissions being passed out.

So your saying all people who are fat have a disease (lazyitus).
Stavation is not a disease. Main cause by not having adequate food to consume. Lately caused by high food costs that fat people have helped to increase. By enhancing global warming.

If governments could cut there health costs by not having to care for fat lazy people who suffer heart attacts putting a strain on the health system then this money could help to feed the poor.

And if US stoping fighting costly wars, over oil so fat people who are to lazy to walk can fill there cars then trillions of $'s could be diverted to helping the poor of this world.

Simple .. stop being greedy.. get some exercise...and feed the world.

They are also investing heavlily in US to help bail it out because all the greedy people there have f.....d up the economy. If China takes out its money and bonds and $s and puts it into feeding Africa then US and the rest of rich world really would be up sh*t creek.

Apologies for earlier comment about Fatties and disease being a burden on health costs. Seems i was wrong. Apparently heart attacks kill people quicker. Slim people that live longer
have more prolonged disease in later life hence larger costs.

Maybe thats the answer if you want to be lazy and fat then eat more... die quicker and be less of a burden on society ?
