Sure, when you look a little wider, since 2000 we have seen the following major improvements:

- Extreme poverty has dropped from 30% to under 10% globally. - Child mortality rates have dropped in half - Internet access has exploded from 10% to 70% - Solar energy costs have dropped 90% - Cancer death rates have declined by 30%

All of these massive improvements in less than 30 years.

While there certainly are issues to solve, and if you simply follow journalism you may think the world is worse off, but for many, their lives have been significantly improved.

Just like the computer revolution, it will make a small number of people richer and put everyone else at their mercy. In real terms the average person is far poorer than in the 20th century. Used to be able to buy a home and support a family on a single income. Now it can take two just to survive.

Well, there is more renewable energy than ever before powering the world. It's all being built and added to the grid faster and faster each year.

That's one big plus.

Then you’re either spending time in the wrong parts of the internet or doing things that don't fulfill you.

These times are exciting and rough seas make good sailors. Find your path forward.
