WEBVTT 00:00:01.309 --> 00:00:08.505 [music] 00:00:11.360 --> 00:00:13.310 >> What's up, sunshine? Happy Monday. I'm 00:00:13.320 --> 00:00:15.270 Coy Wire, you're watching CNN 10. Today, 00:00:15.280 --> 00:00:17.070 we've got school cafeterias trying to 00:00:17.080 --> 00:00:19.750 make lunches less shelf-stable, a former 00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:21.430 NFL player putting his money where his 00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:24.110 planet is, and a polar bear goes to the 00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:25.790 dentist. Stay tuned for all those 00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:28.950 stories, but first, on this day, 79 00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:31.950 years ago, it was lights, camera, action 00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:34.670 at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue as President 00:00:34.680 --> 00:00:36.350 Harry S. Truman delivered the first 00:00:36.360 --> 00:00:38.390 televised presidential White House 00:00:38.400 --> 00:00:40.750 address. Truman used the speech to urge 00:00:40.760 --> 00:00:42.750 Americans to cut back on grain 00:00:42.760 --> 00:00:44.790 consumption as part of the Marshall 00:00:44.800 --> 00:00:46.790 Plan, his administration's program to 00:00:46.800 --> 00:00:48.870 help a famine-stricken Europe recover 00:00:48.880 --> 00:00:51.270 from World War II. But that wasn't even 00:00:51.280 --> 00:00:53.630 the first time Truman made TV history 00:00:53.640 --> 00:00:55.750 that year. 9 months earlier, he 00:00:55.760 --> 00:00:57.510 delivered the first televised State of 00:00:57.520 --> 00:00:59.470 the Union address to Congress. 00:00:59.480 --> 00:01:02.390 >> What we do or fail to do at home affects 00:01:02.400 --> 00:01:05.110 not only ourselves, but millions 00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:06.710 throughout the world. 00:01:06.720 --> 00:01:09.190 >> While TV was still a nascent technology 00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:10.990 at the time, just beginning to develop 00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:13.670 or grow, it would explode in popularity 00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:16.070 over the next decade. By the 1950s, 00:01:16.080 --> 00:01:18.070 millions of Americans no longer just 00:01:18.080 --> 00:01:20.190 listened to their radio for their news, 00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:21.950 they could watch it from their living 00:01:21.960 --> 00:01:24.750 rooms. Turns out Truman was truly ahead 00:01:24.760 --> 00:01:27.430 of his times. These days, politics and 00:01:27.440 --> 00:01:29.190 television are virtually inseparable, 00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:32.110 right? Campaign ads, televised debates, 00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:34.150 the White House press conferences. 00:01:34.160 --> 00:01:35.590 Here's your knowledge bomb for the day, 00:01:35.600 --> 00:01:38.030 though. The S in Harry S. Truman stands 00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:40.390 for S. His parents famously couldn't 00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:42.390 decide which grandparent to name him 00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:44.110 after, and they compromised on the 00:01:44.120 --> 00:01:46.230 single initial name. Whether or not the 00:01:46.240 --> 00:01:48.150 S gets a period has become a 00:01:48.160 --> 00:01:50.430 decades-long debate, did you know? With 00:01:50.440 --> 00:01:52.630 government buildings, style guides, even 00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:54.870 aircraft carriers all sporting different 00:01:54.880 --> 00:01:57.510 variations. Now to a new push to 00:01:57.520 --> 00:02:00.070 overhaul school lunches. The White House 00:02:00.080 --> 00:02:01.910 is calling for public school cafeterias 00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:04.550 to serve less ready-made ultra-processed 00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:06.430 food and instead provide more meals 00:02:06.440 --> 00:02:08.070 cooked from scratch using fresh 00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:09.990 ingredients. But many school districts 00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:12.310 say making those changes won't be easy 00:02:12.320 --> 00:02:14.350 due to outdated equipment, limited 00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:16.550 kitchen space, tight federal funding, 00:02:16.560 --> 00:02:18.790 and more. CNN's Meg Tirrell takes us to 00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:20.350 a school in Connecticut to see the 00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:22.390 challenges and a school in Colorado to 00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:24.670 see what's working. 00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:27.030 >> Imagine preparing lunch for 300 kids 00:02:27.040 --> 00:02:28.870 every day in here. 00:02:28.880 --> 00:02:31.430 >> When the doors opened, like it was 00:02:31.440 --> 00:02:32.910 claustrophobia. 00:02:32.920 --> 00:02:34.270 >> Well, we have a very old building that 00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:36.390 was opened in the early '60s, [music] 00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:38.430 and so it was sort of piecemealed with 00:02:38.440 --> 00:02:39.949 the cafeteria. They didn't serve hot 00:02:39.959 --> 00:02:41.750 lunch at the time that it was built. 00:02:41.760 --> 00:02:43.030 >> administration wants to encourage 00:02:43.040 --> 00:02:45.630 schools to do more cooking from scratch. 00:02:45.640 --> 00:02:46.949 The problem 00:02:46.959 --> 00:02:48.550 is spaces like this. 00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:50.590 >> I have absolutely no idea how I would do 00:02:50.600 --> 00:02:51.230 it here. 00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:52.830 >> This is Thomas Hooker Elementary School 00:02:52.840 --> 00:02:54.390 in Meriden, Connecticut. They've cobbled 00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:56.830 together a kitchen out of that closet, 00:02:56.840 --> 00:02:59.590 this hallway, and this office, which 00:02:59.600 --> 00:03:02.509 also doubles as their washing space. Out 00:03:02.519 --> 00:03:04.630 there, you've got their only prep space. 00:03:04.640 --> 00:03:07.350 >> The orange glaze comes, you know, in a 00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:09.270 shelf-stable container that she heated 00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:12.562 up. The chicken is a frozen popcorn 00:03:12.572 --> 00:03:15.830 [music] chicken product. The burgers are 00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:17.830 a pre-cooked burger patty that's 00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:18.910 reheated. 00:03:18.920 --> 00:03:20.470 >> The administration has promised to make 00:03:20.480 --> 00:03:22.830 childhood nutrition a central focus from 00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:24.790 HHS to USDA. 00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:28.310 >> We traded real food for convenience. 00:03:28.320 --> 00:03:31.430 >> And our kids were left to pay the price. 00:03:31.440 --> 00:03:33.750 >> Which is making $70 million in federal 00:03:33.760 --> 00:03:35.710 grants available for schools to upgrade 00:03:35.720 --> 00:03:38.670 equipment. But out of $20 allocated so 00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:40.750 far, Connecticut has received about 00:03:40.760 --> 00:03:42.430 $209,000. 00:03:42.440 --> 00:03:44.150 The school district in Meriden alone 00:03:44.160 --> 00:03:46.190 spent more than that last year. 00:03:46.200 --> 00:03:49.190 >> I spent $175,000 00:03:49.200 --> 00:03:51.070 on equipment last year out of my own 00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:54.190 budget, and $150,000 00:03:54.200 --> 00:03:55.830 on repairs and maintenance. 00:03:55.840 --> 00:03:58.390 >> Wow. So, and the 209 is for the entire 00:03:58.400 --> 00:03:59.230 state, so 00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:00.790 >> Correct. Correct. 00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:02.830 >> The administration is also finalizing a 00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:05.110 proposed new school nutrition rule based 00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:07.270 on updated dietary guidelines. 00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:08.350 >> What do you think you would need in 00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:10.070 order to be able to do that? 00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:11.512 >> I would need an addition. 00:04:11.522 --> 00:04:11.990 >> [laughter] 00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:13.949 >> Like a new physical structure. 00:04:13.959 --> 00:04:15.350 >> we would we would need definitely more 00:04:15.360 --> 00:04:17.670 space for food preparation, for sure. 00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:19.069 Definitely more ovens, more 00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:21.150 refrigeration, more work space. 00:04:21.160 --> 00:04:23.150 >> Around the country, 16% of school 00:04:23.160 --> 00:04:25.150 districts are already doing some scratch 00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:27.390 cooking. Littleton, Colorado built this 00:04:27.400 --> 00:04:29.590 kitchen last year, and makes about half 00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:33.350 of their lunches from scratch. 00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:35.830 >> This full project of our production 00:04:35.840 --> 00:04:37.470 kitchen in Littleton 00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:40.988 cost a bit over $4 million. We feed 00:04:40.998 --> 00:04:44.470 [music] roughly 7,000, 00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:45.830 a little bit more than that. 00:04:45.840 --> 00:04:47.430 >> But schools say they still need more 00:04:47.440 --> 00:04:48.350 resources. 00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:51.350 >> I budget around $100,000 00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:54.590 for equipment every year. In a perfect 00:04:54.600 --> 00:04:57.270 world, I would be budgeting about 00:04:57.280 --> 00:04:59.270 $350,000. 00:04:59.280 --> 00:05:01.470 >> Anything will help, but it won't get me 00:05:01.480 --> 00:05:05.430 there. It's just insufficient. 00:05:05.440 --> 00:05:07.430 >> Tick tick tick tick 10 second trivia. 00:05:07.440 --> 00:05:08.830 Which of these is the world's oldest 00:05:08.840 --> 00:05:10.990 international sporting competition? 00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:13.470 America's Cup, World Cup, Ryder Cup, or 00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:19.030 Tour de France? 00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:20.630 If you said America's Cup, your 00:05:20.640 --> 00:05:23.030 knowledge is in shipshape. The esteemed 00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:25.790 sailing competition dates back to 1851, 00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:27.710 and the trophy is actually named after a 00:05:27.720 --> 00:05:29.990 boat, not a country. The America, a 00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:32.670 100-ft schooner, won the inaugural race 00:05:32.680 --> 00:05:35.390 around England's Isle of Wight. Kelvin 00:05:35.400 --> 00:05:37.790 Beachum spent his NFL career protecting 00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:39.110 quarterbacks. Now, he's helping a 00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:40.909 different sport think about protecting 00:05:40.919 --> 00:05:43.190 its own playing field. I spoke to Kelvin 00:05:43.200 --> 00:05:45.470 about how his love of the water led him 00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:47.550 to a passionate new partnership with 00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:50.150 SailGP, the racing league whose basic 00:05:50.160 --> 00:05:51.870 premise is, "If the ocean is your 00:05:51.880 --> 00:05:54.110 racetrack, you have a responsibility to 00:05:54.120 --> 00:05:55.150 protect it." 00:05:55.160 --> 00:05:56.910 >> As a football player, you know this all 00:05:56.920 --> 00:05:58.870 too well. We fly a lot. We fly all over 00:05:58.880 --> 00:06:00.870 the world. We fly all over the country. 00:06:00.880 --> 00:06:02.510 And we fly, you know, now over the 00:06:02.520 --> 00:06:04.350 oceans with us playing in international 00:06:04.360 --> 00:06:06.750 games. And I think we have an obligation 00:06:06.760 --> 00:06:08.630 to ensure that the oceans that we're 00:06:08.640 --> 00:06:11.190 flying over have the ability to endure 00:06:11.200 --> 00:06:12.630 not only our lifetime, but our 00:06:12.640 --> 00:06:14.990 children's, children's, children's 00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:16.270 lifetimes. 00:06:16.280 --> 00:06:18.350 >> You're an NFL offensive lineman from 00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:20.470 Texas, not exactly the resume you'd 00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:24.510 expect for a SailGP guy. How did you get 00:06:24.520 --> 00:06:26.590 hooked on sailing? 00:06:26.600 --> 00:06:27.790 >> You know, for me, man, it's it's 00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:31.070 fascinating just to see movement and how 00:06:31.080 --> 00:06:32.870 movement can occur in a number of 00:06:32.880 --> 00:06:34.750 different ways. Um as an offensive 00:06:34.760 --> 00:06:37.030 lineman, I get to move people. And 00:06:37.040 --> 00:06:38.950 what's great about watching SailGP is 00:06:38.960 --> 00:06:41.150 watching the wind and watching the water 00:06:41.160 --> 00:06:44.030 really test the wills of athletes at a 00:06:44.040 --> 00:06:45.270 very, very high level. I've had the 00:06:45.280 --> 00:06:46.510 opportunity to watch them in San 00:06:46.520 --> 00:06:48.390 Francisco. I've tried to get to some of 00:06:48.400 --> 00:06:50.310 the international opportunities. I've 00:06:50.320 --> 00:06:53.310 cashed it um for years online and and 00:06:53.320 --> 00:06:55.670 been fortunate to be a part of of of 00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:57.110 Impact League, which has allowed me 00:06:57.120 --> 00:06:59.670 another purview to see SailGP and 00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:01.070 everything that it's doing and all the 00:07:01.080 --> 00:07:02.550 good work that it's doing as well. 00:07:02.560 --> 00:07:05.710 >> For someone who's never seen SailGP, uh 00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:07.230 these boats can fly across the water at 00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:10.350 more than 60 mph. What makes the sport 00:07:10.360 --> 00:07:12.470 itself so cool to you? 00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:14.310 >> You know, the thing is is is is mother 00:07:14.320 --> 00:07:17.990 nature doing the work, honestly. And 00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:20.230 it's seeing these, you know, uh 00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:22.430 high-performance athletes being able to 00:07:22.440 --> 00:07:25.630 wield their way to use mother nature in 00:07:25.640 --> 00:07:28.230 their advantage to find a way to win, 00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:29.430 you know, these particular races and 00:07:29.440 --> 00:07:30.950 these particular matches. And what's so 00:07:30.960 --> 00:07:33.430 great about it is every region has 00:07:33.440 --> 00:07:35.470 something different to offer. The Middle 00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:39.030 East, Europe, uh America, South America, 00:07:39.040 --> 00:07:40.950 you know, anytime they're having these 00:07:40.960 --> 00:07:43.750 races, each location has something 00:07:43.760 --> 00:07:45.350 different to add. You know, a football 00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:46.590 field, it's the same football field 00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:48.230 whether you're playing it in, you know, 00:07:48.240 --> 00:07:50.230 you play it in in in Buffalo now at 00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:52.110 Highmark Field or whether it's when I 00:07:52.120 --> 00:07:53.630 was there in Pittsburgh at Heinz Field. 00:07:53.640 --> 00:07:55.470 Like, it's a football field. But, when 00:07:55.480 --> 00:07:57.590 you're going to Southeast Asia and and 00:07:57.600 --> 00:07:59.150 and they're in Singapore or you're going 00:07:59.160 --> 00:08:01.230 to the South of France or you're going 00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:03.110 to Chicago, which is another place I had 00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:05.190 the opportunity to see the race, there's 00:08:05.200 --> 00:08:07.310 different climates and the wind and the 00:08:07.320 --> 00:08:09.030 water is much different in each of those 00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:09.990 locations. 00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:12.070 >> When you talk to kids about water and 00:08:12.080 --> 00:08:15.150 conservation, what's one thing you hope 00:08:15.160 --> 00:08:16.270 sticks with them? 00:08:16.280 --> 00:08:17.350 >> You know, I think the one thing that I 00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:19.030 ask that sticks with young people is go 00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:20.550 and explore. 00:08:20.560 --> 00:08:22.950 You really don't know what the world has 00:08:22.960 --> 00:08:24.950 to offer unless you take the time to go 00:08:24.960 --> 00:08:27.510 and explore. And what's beautiful about, 00:08:27.520 --> 00:08:29.150 you know, some parts of the world is you 00:08:29.160 --> 00:08:31.470 have access to looking at water, whether 00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:33.230 it's a big lake, whether it's a big 00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:35.310 river, and then find a way to serve 00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:37.510 wherever you happen to be at. Sometimes, 00:08:37.520 --> 00:08:38.709 you know, kids don't know where to 00:08:38.719 --> 00:08:40.750 start. Just go find whatever you're 00:08:40.760 --> 00:08:42.709 passionate about and start serving there 00:08:42.719 --> 00:08:43.990 in that particular regard. 00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:45.510 >> And you know, sometimes it's as simple 00:08:45.520 --> 00:08:47.829 as you see a piece of trash floating in 00:08:47.839 --> 00:08:49.950 the water or sitting alongside it, just 00:08:49.960 --> 00:08:51.829 pick it up. You're doing something 00:08:51.839 --> 00:08:57.096 that's bigger than you realize. 00:08:57.106 --> 00:08:59.270 >> [music] 00:08:59.280 --> 00:09:01.110 >> Today's story getting a 10 out of 10, a 00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:02.790 creative team of veterinarians who 00:09:02.800 --> 00:09:04.790 fought tooth and nail to help their 00:09:04.800 --> 00:09:07.950 zoo's beloved polar bear. Meet Kova, a 00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:10.670 polar bear at the Alaska Zoo, who wasn't 00:09:10.680 --> 00:09:12.550 acting like herself lately. 00:09:12.560 --> 00:09:15.190 >> Kova is a very interactive and and busy 00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:17.350 bear, and she just seemed kind of off. 00:09:17.360 --> 00:09:18.710 She was pawing at her mouth a little 00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:20.630 bit. We could see that she had broken 00:09:20.640 --> 00:09:22.790 one of her canines, and there's any 00:09:22.800 --> 00:09:24.670 number of ways she could have done that. 00:09:24.680 --> 00:09:27.670 >> Ouch. After a few massive x-rays and 00:09:27.680 --> 00:09:29.829 conversations with experts, the zoo's 00:09:29.839 --> 00:09:31.990 veterinarians decided to team up with a 00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:34.590 local Alaska endodontist. And that's a 00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:36.590 mouthful, but also a dentist who 00:09:36.600 --> 00:09:38.750 specializes in root canals or cleaning 00:09:38.760 --> 00:09:40.710 out infections deep inside teeth. 00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:42.630 Perhaps not so surprisingly, this was 00:09:42.640 --> 00:09:44.510 the first time they had performed a root 00:09:44.520 --> 00:09:48.110 canal on a fully sedated 450-lb bear. 00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:50.030 The tooth was treated and the whole 00:09:50.040 --> 00:09:52.990 operation a success and that is as cool 00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:54.670 as a polar bear's toenails. All right, 00:09:54.680 --> 00:09:56.230 we have time for a shout out today and 00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:58.630 this one goes to Ms. Green Tree and 00:09:58.640 --> 00:10:00.390 friends at St. Francis of Assisi 00:10:00.400 --> 00:10:02.830 Catholic School in Newcastle, Ontario, 00:10:02.840 --> 00:10:04.750 Canada.
