Unit 9 What other topic would you like to research

If I could choose any other topic to research I would choose childhood obesity. I feel that as a nation we need to develop a plan to counter childhood obesity. Childhood obesity will be a major cause of many medical issues that can be solved by teaching children the importance of eating well. Children should also be taught the importance of exercise. A large part and contributing factor to childhood obesity lays with the large amount of inactivity. Children should be encouraged to go outside and have fun. Fun can consist of riding their bike to playing with the dog in the yard. I have a great passion for the general causes of childhood obesity and would love to conduct more research on this topic.

Unit 8 Do you plan to keep your blog page?

I do not plan on keeping my blog site. Although, I have had a lot of fun I know that I will not keep up with my blog. I feel that I just do not have that many interesting things to say. I do however like to read what is on peoples mind and what they think is important to them. Blogs also keep you updated what are the hot topics. I did find a lot of passionate blogs on the oil spill. I found it interesting how each person had there own personal interest in the topic. I also read a lot of personal stories and how the oil spill was effecting the personally. I am glad that I had the opportunity to start this blog and meet new people.
