Are things truly getting worse?

Ashton is joined by Author and Editor of Humanprogress.org, Marian Tupy to explore the most important global trends which receive limited mention in the media but are making the world a better place.

In their talk, Ashton and Marian explore:

Why the majority of Americans think things are becoming worse?

Why do brilliant people who are normally well positioned economically have the most negative opinions about the world?

How the last 40 years saw the biggest decline in global poverty of all time.

Why, despite the narratives propagated by climate alarmists, deaths from natural disasters have fallen 99 percent over the previous century?

Why are there more trees than at any point in human history?

How cancer deaths have declined dramatically since the 1990s

Why crime declined significantly since the 1970s and why it is starting to go up again?

Why are airplanes slower than they were in the 1970s?

And much more.
