Here is a video that might help you to understand a bit more about obesity. Enjoy!
As you can see, obesity doesn't only affect humans, but also has an effect on the environment. These are some of the effects:
Because of obesity, obese people will not want to walk as much, so they take the train or a car. This is hurting the environment.
The packaging from McDonald's food is not degradable, so even if it is not McDonald's fault that people throw their packaging on the road, it is their fault that the packaging doesn't break down.
Meat and dairy is not healthy for you, but McDonald's keeps bringing out new cheeseburgers and they have meat AND dairy in them. SO more cows and animals are being used and killed.
Once a person is obese, they wouldn't usually be as active as they were, so they would sit down a lot and watch television more. Therefore, energy and electricity is being wasted.
I know this is going a bit deep, but here it is. If you are obese, you would tend to sleep in a bit more, meaning that you could be late for work, which means that you are not making your company money, which means that if your company or business is an important one like a mining business for instance, that will have an effect on the environment.
Impact on humans
These are some of the impacts that obesity has on humans:
Some diseases or problems you can end up getting from obesity:
-High blood pressure
-Diabetes (Normally Type 2)
-Heart disease
-Osteoarthritis
-Joint problems
-Depression (this could also be the other way around, e.g. you can end up being obese from having depression)
-Sleep apnea
-Respiratory problems
-Cancer
-Stroke
-High cholesterol levels
-Liver and gallbladder disease
-Metabolic syndrome
Because of obesity, you could be discriminated against (if you are obese)
The impact McDonalds has on humans is significant as well.
These are some of their impacts:
McDonald's promotes their food as nutritious, and some of it is, but most of the ingredients in their food are high in sugar, fat and salt. The ingredients are also low in fibre and vitamins.
The food from McDonald's contains chemical additives, which causes hyperactivity in children.
Because not a lot of people want to or need to work at McDonald's, there aren't a lot of employees. This means that employees that do work there have to work longer shifts for a lower wage. Considering this, burns and other injuries are very common.
