2015: The Best Year in History for the Average Human Being Violence dominated the headlines this year. But by many measures, humanity is in better shape than it’s ever been. http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2015/12/good-news-in-2015/421200/ It has also been the hottest since measurments started. Is there a correlation? :) |
