Answer:

False

Explanation:

This statement is false, even though there may be many people who are obese, it is false to say more than 50% are obese.

BMI (Body Mass Index) is calculated as a ratio of mass and height. However, it is not completely accurate, because some people may have a low or high BMI, and be (medically diagnosed) in good health.

If your BMI is:

Below 18: This means you are underweight

18-24: Average weight

24-30: Overweight

Over 30: Obese

(Once again, many people can be classified by their BMI as overweight or underweight, but be in good health according to doctors).

A teacher interested in promoting sustainable nutrition would include a lesson about
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Sustainable nutrition means eating foodstuff from sources that protect the environment and food stocks in the long term. Much of our foodstuff unfortunately does not come from sustainable sources. If you are a teacher, you must start introducing children to the topics of environmental science and agriculture so they can understand the relationship between environment and agriculture.
