Abstract
In our increasing focus on the problem of obesity in the western world, rarely do we delve into the role that the built environment plays. However, it is the built environment that serves as the backdrop for healthy vs unhealthy living. By making simple changes in the way we plan, we can eliminate some of the key factors that are fuelling our venture into an increasingly overweight society.
