How to Be Hopeful About Doomsday
Or at least...not hopeless. We are faced with a number of tremendous challenges and none of them will be fixed over night. Science might be fast, but scaling and implementing is slow...and slowest of all is human culture.
IT'S HARD!!
Anyway, here's the video of the unveiling of the Doomsday Clock: • News Event: 2022 Doomsday Clock Annou... my bit starts at around 30 minutes in!
And here are the three things I called out in this video:
The Prison Policy Initiative
David Roberts - http://Volts.WTF
Fair Fight - https://fairfight.com/
When I'm diving into a subject for the first time, I understand that I'm going to be confused, and I'm always ready to pause whatever I'm watching or listening to or reading to google something so that I can understand it better. It takes time, but I love it, because I'm learning the whole time. And it means that I'm going to know something that like 0.00001% of people know, which is going to make me way better at being effective but also compassionate!
And it makes me more curious and less mad!!!
