Reading 1/2:
pollution is a killer, with 7 million people dying worldwide each year from diseases associated with it. It is not just vehicle fumes and industries which
are the problem. Around 2.4 billion people worldwide are exposed to dangerous levels of household air pollution while cooking on fires or stoves
fuelled by kerosene, wood, dung and coal.
According to a different study, which measured factors such as the cost of staying healthy, life expectancy. air pollution, obesity. sunlight hours and
crime rate, the healthiest country is Spain. This is most likely due to its traditionally healthy diet, clean air, the number of people walking to work
(37%). and free healthcare. Interestingly, another study, the Global Health Security Index, ranks the USA as the healthiest nation. This was because
its high standards in research, safety and communication allow it to detect and respond to pandemics the most effectively. This contrasts with the

The countries with the highest levels of obesity, however, are in the Pacific islands. In countries such as Nauru, Tuvalu and Palau, over half the
population is obese. This is a relatively new trend, as, before the 1950s, locals consumed a traditional diet that included bananas, coconuts. yams
and seafood. Since then, incomes have increased, making imported convenience foods more affordable. This new scenario causes people to make
poor food choices despite the availability of healthier, locally-grown options. In many regions of the USA, healthy choices just aren't available, or they
are too expensive. In addition, this country's driving culture means that many people don't get enough exercise.
