Childhood #Obesity is a serious threat to the health of our children, with India having 14.4 million obese children - the second highest in the world, after China. Our children are consuming too many calories, but not enough nutrition. Childhood obesity paves the way for metabolic syndrome, poor physical health, mental disorders, respiratory problems, & glucose intolerance, all of which will continue into the adult years. Consumption of processed foods is a particular risk factor with sugary beverages, salty chips & all manner of fried foods easily & cheaply available.

Today on #WorldWastePickersDay, we celebrate the over 15 million waste pickers globally, who handle our waste unflinchingly. They rummage through our #waste, salvaging tonnes of it that might otherwise have ended up in #landfills. And they even look through the vast wastelands of our landfills, recovering something small here and there. Let's celebrate them for they are the true unsung heroes.
