I'm coming to the end of my blog so wanted to do an extra post before my final one on Sunday to mention a book I've read recently that's dramatically changed my perspective on a lot of things! It's called Human Kind: A Hopeful History by Rutger Bregman. It basically puts forward all the evidence for the reason why humans are fundamentally cooperative and loving creatures rather than selfish ones. In a time of massive loneliness and worry for all of us, this has been a great comfort read for me, and has given me a lot of faith in humanity for the future. This can be applied to not just pandemics and politics, but to the wider ecological crisis.
If you can't get your hands on the book, then watch this video below - it speaks of most of the points the book mentions, and was recommended by Rutger Bregman himself.
See you on Sunday, stay safe everyone and have a wonderful Christmas!
