Urban Design and Obesity (or lack thereof)
Over at Bike Portland, Jonathan is reporting on an AP story that suggests that our urban design may be one of the reasons that Oregon, unlike other states, did not show an increase in obesity in the most recent reporting period.
The article features our own Linda Ginenthal from the Portland Office of Transportation!

Hello Chris,
I am a interaction design student, from Denmark, I am working on my final thesis. The thesis topic is about Obesity and Children. Then I came across the link below. I am interested in this news. Could you help me get to know more in detail.
I appreciate your time.
Thanks in advance
