Obesity is a global epidemic that is on the rise. The U.S. adult obesity rate tops 40 percent, the highest ever recorded. More than one billion people worldwide are obese, including 650 million adults, 340 million adolescents and 39 million children1. WHO estimates that by 2025, approximately 167 million people will become less healthy because they are overweight or obese1. The success of tackling the obesity pandemic depends on governments, businesses and civil society working together to fix inadequacies in our food and health systems.
