The world is not growing worse and it is not growing better - it is just turning around as usual.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The living world has become impoverished. Species are being lost every day. Energy and other resources are nearing exhaustion. The environment is deteriorating. Pollution is everywhere. Climate is changing. Natural balances are threatened.
We can't expect the world to get better by itself. We have to create something we can leave the next generation.
The world will change for the better when people decide they are sick and tired of being sick and tired of the way the world is, and decide to change themselves.
The world does not get to be a better or a worse place; it just gets more senescent.
For an adult, the world is constantly trying to clamp down on itself. Routine, responsibility, decay of institutions, corruption: this is all the world closing in.
It seems like the older I get, the more unreal the world becomes.
In so many things, growth comes from adversity.
The world is increasing in wickedness.
I think the world is always improving and always not improving. I think that both are simultaneously happening all the time.
The good news is world population growth rate decreases systematically and is expected to reach zero by 2050, thanks to urbanisation and women's education.
