Doctors Prescribe kids to get outside to beat obesity

Childhood obesity is a major national concern in the U.S., with about one third of minors overweight. A vast number of campaigns to reverse this have arisen in the last decade, such as Michelle Obama’s Let’s Move campaign and the NFL’s Play60 campaign. However, the most progressive response is a prescription to take a step back from our modern technology-based society: doctors are now writing “Outdoor Activity” on Rx labels to overweight and obese children. “Outdoor Activity” prescriptions have been successful so far, not only improving youth’s health but also teaching them to love being outside.

FORMATION OF CONTINENTS

The earth’ history is 4.5 billion years old when all the continents which we see today were not in this shape & position. Amazingly these continents were close to each other! By 750 million years ago the earth’s mass combined to ‘Supercontinent’. And surrounding this ‘Supercontinent’ there was also an extensive ocean. Roughly 750 Ma (million years ago), the earliest-known supercontinent Rodinia , began to break apart. The continents later recombined to form Pannotia , 600–540 Ma, then finally Pangaea which is “All Earth” in Greek. Then about 200 million years ago the land began to drift apart. It broke into two pieces, · Laurasia – the northern supercontinent- splits in Eurasia and North America · Gondwanaland - the southern supercontinent which consisted § Antarctica, § South America § Africa § India and § Australia. The two large continents continued to break apart into the smaller continents that exist today. Eduard Suess, an Austrian geologist named it ‘Gondwanaland’. The nam...
