How to use goals for better health

 

  1. The umbrella goal (till the end of your life): enjoy life more.
  2. Long-term sub-goal (1+ years): be as healthy as possible - indicated by indicators such as body composition, energy levels, happiness, etc. 
  3. Medium-term sub-goal (3-12 months): solidify new lifestyle and routines, indicated by hours physically active per week; hours slept on average every day, changes in body composition, and laboratory markers.

(Who knew!) The problem, of course, is that all of this is still ~30 years overdue. The climate will continue to warm, and that warming will continue to affect us. How does climate change affect the wine industry? Europe is wine's most important continent. Most of the world's wines come from Europe, and just 3 countries account for over half of all wine production: France, Italy and Spain.
