Do not be fooled by the negativity bias. There is objectively less violence, less forest fires, less natural disasters and related deaths, less disease and less weather-volatility than at any other point in human history.

The world is not ending. Things are better now than they have ever been in most respects and it’s not even close.

The pearl clutters and doomers ruin their own lives being fearful when they should be thankful for their easy and safe lives. The constant influx of scary media we have access to is a cancer on the psyche if unchecked with relative reality. Don’t be a victim.

Always zoom out. Interesting to see 1972 close to the bottom…

Smoky the Bear worked! 🤣

In this case, correlation does equal causation. 100%.

We have been through many ice ages. I don’t think we’re going to drop the ball now. 

LA is not a wild fire or Forrest fire. It’s a city fire, where there are fire hydrants, which are supposed to have water.

Interested to see the intensity of the fires. I'm willing to bet that while modem ones are less acres, they're also much more intense.
