I’m Honestly Fed Up With All The Bad News, So I Illustrated 40 Of The Best Ones From 2021

Wow thats genius. Whats the name of the "italian activist" thou??

Well done, Mexico! Canada, everyone is looking at you.

This should apply to every situation.

Aww the picture

Awesome. I love rhinos.

I commend you norway

Let’s hope it isn’t patented 200 times in order to keep costs out of reach

That's great!

I didn't even know this was a thing

It's not just the number of the trees but the species as well. They should plant not just native trees but natives plants as well. A healthy forest should be diverse, both genetically and species.

They are still bored though

Thank goodness. Horrible practice.

This just makes sense.

I hope they take it a step further and prohibit all goods by companies use shark fins in any product.

Yessssssss

I'll be swiping right all the time 🙈

what a great idea!!! imagine if everyone did that!!!

That's a big one! Go science!

When did this start? The population of Wales is only 3.1 million.

We really don't need to keep people in dangerous underground slavery conditions, and allowing a very small number of people to control the supply and get rich on the backs of the workers, just for a tiny gemstone that can be safely replicated in a lab.

At last

Not to be a doozy, because it's admirable that we are capable of change if we set our minds to not using cfc's, but sadly CO2 emissions need to get down (which is a lot harder) to not undo that success in the long run. Bad news stinks of course so, see we can do it, go humans!

Amazing!

This makes me happy

We just don't need everything to be wrapped in plastic.

I'm suddenly a fan of the Serbian team!

We have a few hundred of these in Leipzig. And nobody gets stung.

Thats a really good idea. I hope it works.

I believe that Iceland, Sweden, Costa Rica, and Uruguay are part of that group. Not sure about the rest.

Very good, also helps with poverty that is endangering humans.

The seals are not applauding.

Here is a photo from the campaign. It was actually efficient, several dogs were adopted. It also produced some sweet moments, as some dogs woulnd't leave their humans' arms or would run away on the field :))) 646x528-61...b422a5.jpg

I love this so much

In short: Common sense! Nature has its pest control. Just make friends with it. (Yes, I am okay with snakes. One black ratsnake native to my area means you won't see rats, mice, or the venomous snakes!)

Thank you, Chile!

I'd like to see a source on this one, it would be awesome but I don't see how it could happen.

Do not mess with the mummots!

And now shell is leaving the netherlands

Tbh,if it isn't durable i won't buy it.I have a leather jacket that is 10 years old and it is the same as the first day.I would call that a sustainable piece of clothing.Fake leather will have cracks after a few years so you need to buy new furniture/clothing

So no aircon?

Wow!

Of course they do, they evolved with their environment, unlike the colonial powers.

That's a brilliant idea. Very glad to hear about it.

Go bees!

I remember reading about this one. It always makes me happy to read about something that was imagined for practical purposes being turned into wholesome, because people can be capable of great good.

Back when I was newly vegan, I would often share information like this, but people did NOT want to hear about it. It made them uncomfortable and challenged the comfort they had with their diets. I learned two things: 1. Don't be a preachy in-your-face vegan and 2. People will change their habits when they are physically or emotionally ready to do so, and not before. But yeah, this type of "farming" practice really tears me up inside.

Yes, this should be set as an example for everywhere!

Cool!

Driving on the right or left?

It’s sad that it’s just one country that has this, but good for Estonia!

Good! I hate poachers.

The bees say thank you!! 🐝🐝

Ok, boom... oh wait, these are the positive ones.

Wait, “fossil-based ones”? I thought fertilizer was usually made of cow poop?

True

Well done, Wales.

Human-composting? Say what now? Do they mean burials without embalming and large caskets? Because that's not new ;)

What about nuclear energy? Where does it stand?

Also Portugal Establishes the Largest Fully Protected Marine Reserve in Europe & North Atlantic.

We need these everywhere. I think it should be made very difficult to make new plastic, forcing companies to use recycled plastic for everything.

Unfortunately in 2021 alone, forested areas around the world, enough to cover all of Europe went up in flames, contributing to the CO2 levels considerably and diminishing the ability to scrub CO2 from the atmosphere greatly. Fires in 2022 are expected to be as expansive if not bigger than those in 2021.

What a lovely concept

Only 2 things keeping me from electric is the cost and distance on a charge. I don't know about other countries but electric cars with an appreciable range in the US are much more expensive than an economy gas vehicle. The cars I could afford won't get me round trip from home to work and back and there is no place to charge near my work.

Let poor countries have the vaccine patents for free!

Does anybody think they can acclimate and survive in the wild?

Wow, Atlanta is actually kind of close to me! (I live in Florida but it still takes 5+ hours to get there)
