Show Notes
This week on the podcast I’m joined by Dr. Mariela Alfonzo to discuss walkability in China. We talk about her recent paper, Walkability, obesity and urban design in Chinese neighborhoods in the journal Preventative Medicine as well as the lack of data availability for researchers, the obstacles to walking such as poles and poorly designed ramps, and the huge issue of air quality indoors and out.
