 WASHINGTON, D.C. -- President Bush said Thursday that childhood obesity is a costly problem for the country and puts stress on American families.
"One way for this nation to cope with the issue of obesity is to get people outside--whether it be through sports or hiking or conservation," Bush said while meeting with business leaders working to encourage exercise and healthy food choices through advertising.
The government, in cooperation with DreamWorks Animation SKG, is launching a public awareness campaign featuring characters from the Shrek movies encouraging children to "Be a Player" and get up and play for an hour a day.
