Global Warming, could it be we are all just fatter and sweatier?

The BBC reports that "There are now more overweight people across the world than hungry ones".

Does this mean there be heart wrenching appeals for help, featuring Sally Struthers walking around the midwest showing the obese people waddling around at the county fairs. "For just $10 a day you'l be able to deny them the hamburger they had been stuffing their face with." (This is actually how I lost the weight. A small village in a developing country pooled their money and decided to sponsor a chubby midwesterner.)
