Too busy for a semester abroad?

Why do the Swiss have lower health care costs AND lower rates of coronary heart disease than Americans? What makes a community walkable? How is global warming showing up in receding glaciers? What does this mean for the Swiss who count on glaciers for water and to generate tourism? Can there be eco-tourism in a developed country?
