Before 9pm makes sense if the target are children. https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004695823 2022-01-21 09:40:31 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004695823 https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696092 I think this is very important, especially during kids' TV shows]]> 2022-01-21 09:40:44 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696092 yes! I don´t know if it is enough but it is at least a start. Maybe also coupled with banning advertisement of sporting events for children and school events https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696123 2022-01-21 09:40:45 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696123 government has to see the pros & cons; whether before 9 pm audience are children https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696295 2022-01-21 09:40:49 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696295 yes i also think it´s a good start but I would totally ban it https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696342 2022-01-21 09:40:51 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696342 https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696498 I think it's a starting point, but if adults still buy these types of food then it's still accessible to kids ]]> 2022-01-21 09:40:57 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696498 https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696898 Is like killing an ant with a hammer]]> 2022-01-21 09:41:12 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004696898 https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004697093 Can help to increase awareness (esp. for alcoholic beverages) but can also trigger eating disorders ]]> 2022-01-21 09:41:22 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004697093 I see almost no limitations. Health consequences need to be visible and alcohol causes a huge health burden on many dimensions. https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004697659 2022-01-21 09:41:43 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004697659 https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004698240 understanding these labels requires health literacy]]> 2022-01-21 09:42:09 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004698240 This (calories on menus) is already happening in a lot of the US and honestly I've trained myself to not look at them, but I can imagine this would be helpful for some people who want to intentionally make healthier decisions. Just not everybody does. erinwalker2 https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004698722 2022-01-21 09:42:32 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004698722 rather than calorie labels maybe quality of food labels are better https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004699464 2022-01-21 09:43:01 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004699464 Good idea but the initiation process is weird. Should not take a pandemic and a sick prime minister to tackle obesity. https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004700862 2022-01-21 09:43:50 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004700862 I think it's a good start but not enough to tackle the problems. https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004701630 2022-01-21 09:44:21 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004701630 looks a good way to start, probably also in order to sensibilize people about the topic since such a big plan is being rolled out -> indirect effect; maybe too little done about accessibility of good food and sport facilities in underpriviledged areas? https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004701669 2022-01-21 09:44:22 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004701669 It's a good start and noteworthy that the government is giving time, money, and resources to this issue. Any progress is good but it might not be sustainable or as effective as possible. erinwalker2 https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004701682 2022-01-21 09:44:23 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004701682 https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004702323 I think it is a good statement that there needs to be changes initiated by the governement, also in European countries

]]> 2022-01-21 09:44:50 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004702323 I think it is also very important that they emphasize budget impact which is often neglected. https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004702814 2022-01-21 09:45:12 UTC https://padlet.com/htlow8/l36v6htpg1klua11/wish/2004702814
