  • I don’t think it’s unrealistic to appreciate good news. I am more than aware of how bad things are, but to only fixate on the bad is not the way to do things. That’s not realistic because it ignores the fact that goods things are happening. Here’s two websites for you to enjoy, full of good news stories happening all over the world right now:

    https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/category/news/earth/

    https://futurecrunch.com/

    You seem to be hoping for one big ‘this one thing will immediately save the world’ style discovery, but you and I know that’s not how these things work. If humanity is to ‘solve’ climate change it will not be through one single game changing moment, it’ll be via a cumulation of many success stories big and small, just like this one.

    Bad news is addictive and it’s dangerous. Stay informed, obviously, but don’t neglect your own mental health for the sake of waiting for some hyperthetical panacea.

    Ive said my piece. Hope you have a good day, friend.
