We are often bombarded with fear-mongering and shocking headlines that make us feel that the world is falling apart.

However, while it’s important to report on problems and issues, I believe there is so much good in this world that it needs to be found and promoted just as widely.

This is especially true after the last few years we have had with COVID, political, and social unrest, and seemingly more negative headlines than we care to count.

Because of that, I started The Happy Broadcast. It's an anti-venom to the vitriolic rhetoric that pervades our media. Also, this year, I’ve illustrated even more happy news than in the previous years and our app WHOLE is bringing more joy and positivity in the world!

Consuming positive news is one known activity that can boost your outlook and mood. We need more positive news to acknowledge that the world is actually getting better little by little. So, with that said, here are some of the top performing positive news illustrations from 2022.

You can find my previous articles about The Happy Broadcast on Bored Panda, here (2021), here (2020)here (coronavirus), and here (2019).

I'm sure Apple will change it for all countries. It's far more expensive to create a different charger port for different countries than to just switch their next phone line to use USB-C.

This project was born as a way to deal with negativity-induced anxiety and in time I’ve realized that the only way to overcome this anxiety is through action and hope. So the goal of the project is to inspire and educate.

While not ignoring the bad news, I search and consume the stories of the people that rally together to help in a time of need. I share their stories and find ways I can support them and make sure they can do more. That’s what The Happy Broadcast is. Instead of getting overwhelmed by the bad in the world, we celebrate and get inspired by the millions of people that have shown us that we can all have a positive impact.

Some people tell us that there’s no hope and that the world is about to end. My answer is that there will always be hope as long as there’s action. We can’t just sit and hope. We can’t just witness what’s wrong in the world and hope that someone else will fix it. Whether it is sending money, showing your support or taking to social media to call for help and donations, help in a big or small way is what I believe will turn people’s anxiety into a healthier and positive reaction.

So let's turn the negative into a positive!

    I also have an app called WHOLE. WHOLE is a self-care mobile app that leverages science-backed techniques to help people build and maintain healthy habits... oh, and it’s also free and fun. The main features of WHOLE include daily mood tracking, social journaling, and a habit builder aimed at helping us develop and maintain behaviors that lead to better mental health.

    We created the app because we felt the need of a simple mental health companion, offering content and tools to help develop habits that can lead towards a happier life.

    It's amazing to me. I remember the absolute terror. People were cast out. Children with the disease weren't allowed in school, because of the fear other children could catch it. People would set aside dishes for family members with it so no one else would get it from a plate or fork. These all AFTER we knew how it spread. It's just miraculous to me that now it's a condition that can be kept in check. No one would ever have believed it could be cured.

    During the year 2022, I loved the news of an autonomous drone that saved its first heart attack patient in Sweden by delivering a defibrillator three minutes after the alarm was raised.

    The drone is part of Everdrone’s Emergency Medical Aerial Delivery Service – an experimental program being run in certain regions of Sweden that automatically dispatches drones carrying defibrillators to suspected cardiac events.

    The program is an attempt to address the issue of wait times for emergency services to arrive to cardiac events, where every minute is crucial to survival.

    I'm so torn about this one. While I love bees and think we desperately need to save them, I think about how severe my allergy to them is and how standing under a roof full of them in such close proximity would not only be a huge risk (to all of us with a bee allergy) but would probably cause me a full-blown panic attack anytime one straggled by.

    Sounds like a wonderful idea on the surface! I'd hate to be someone who relies on public transportation and is also allergic to bees. I understand they aren't evil little bugs out there to sting people at every opportunity, but I imagine that's a little extra stress during your commute.

    I have a question about planting trees. In order for you to be able to plant a tree, doesn't the tree need to already exist? You are not manufacturing it out of thin air, correct? So, if you "plant" a tree all you are really doing is yank it from one location and put it in a different one, no?

    Sort of. If you are genetically male and say you've EVER had sex with a genetic male, you get very rigorous screening. I found the process rather intimidating and a little humiliating. Straight friends just walk up, fill out a form, and they take their blood. We get asked invasive questions, but the nurses here are amazing, so it's not too bad, but it's annoying cause Hema Quebec tests the blood regardless. Still, after almost 20 years of being told I can't help, it's nice to finally be able to contribute.

Since a few months i am in Messenger groups, where registered people from food saver (german Organisation with the goal to someday make themself obsolete because there would be All food used) share saved foods but also some 'containerer' (people who save still edible food from dumpsters and share it). I love that we can save food and money but it is a little exhausting and overwhelming sometimes, because you have to think about so many recipes for Kilos of buttermilk or sauce hollondaise or carrots sometimes. Challenging but interesting

    To be fair being disabled in space is a less harsh thing, zero gravity means what you can move doesn’t need to fight gravity. honestly I hope 300 years down the road all people born disabled get the chance to live in space instead, it would just be better in terms of being able to function day to day.

    This is frankly ridiculous. There are lots and lots of reasons for people wanting time off. When my informal foster son died, I got zero time off. I had no vacation or PTO time left and he wasn't a blood relative, so no time off. Is OP suggesting that I take unpaid time off (which I didn't even think of at the time), while people get EXTRA paid time off for pets? If OP's answer is, well sure this doesn't preclude getting time off for other things, then why call out this one very specific scenario of people wanting time off? This is stupid, insulting, and makes me quite angry.

    I think that the answer here is that you should have received PTO, hands down. Just because you didn't at a time doesn't mean everyone shouldn't. This was an issue on behalf of your job, not for the companies that are offering more PTO for those who do want to adopt an animal.

    The Infrastructure needa to be in place to support this and our current infrastructure projects do not align. A car park being built.may come.with 10% of spaces being EV. Even then they arent necessarily going to be rapid charging. Then its not just as simple as wiring more in as you need the network to be able to cope so you need to upgrade the electrical infrastructure significantly. Thats before we even get onto people being able to afford these cars and the environmental impact of constructing them.

    First of all, its 12 years away. Pretty sure the infrastucture will be ready. Second, anyone who has looked at the numbers are able to clearly see, that they are still way less poluting to make and maintain than fosilfueled cars. And the prices will come down with availability.

    No country in Europe currently has the electrical infrastructure to support just 50% of the population driving EV's. That means in the next 13 years, they will have to triple the capacity of the electrical grid. Good luck!

    Ha! Australia is the absolute worst. Australia has the highest loss of species anywhere in the world. We are the global leader in wildlife extinctions. An absolute disgrace. That is just a start point. We love land clearing, felling old growth forests, destroying sacred sites and wiping out entire species endemic only to this country. Then there is the way we treat the oldest living civilisation on Earth. Australia needs to be called out globally.
