Getting better

It is almost impossible to provide an objective case that humanity is getting progressively worse off – the broad trends on a global scale are all toward less violence, longer lives, and greater standards of living. If the 3 major human quests can be described as peace, knowledge, and food, we are closer to fulfilling these quests for more people than ever before. My thought being that you do not need to first make the case that the sky is falling in order to work towards your desired aim. Positivity does not preclude change and action.
