Korean Schools to Ban Coffee, Ramen, Fried Junk : Korea Beat

Korean Schools to Ban Coffee, Ramen, Fried Junk : Korea Beat

This is a blog posting that summarizes a Korean article. It discusses the recent government decision to ban a number of food/drink items from schools (just from being sold in schools, it seems). They are doing this in response to growing rates of obesity in school-aged children.

1. Do you think that this is necessary?
2. What do you think is causing this rise in obesity?
3. What would you do to address this issue?
