Seb, no. You can't just look at the human side of improvements. There are other things beside people on earth you know. Co2 is at an all-time high and in the ozone there are gaping holes hovering above major cities. The rate of deforestation, destruction of habitats, the diverting of water bodies to dam is increasing with every passing year. And you know what's the worst part?
We know this. We know it well. And yet, we haven't made any signification changes. At least, not a world-wide impact.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
This is the graph of progress Seb.
Sure you could argue that there aren't any major wars, as well as the reduction of deaths rates during birth and diseases but at what cost? Basically, we're steam rolling through the earth for our own gains, and if we don't gain anything from doing it, we dont do it.
The main problem is the fact that we too conscious about convenience and commerence to do any large-scale fixing.
But I digress.
-Removed-
Progress can't be measured solely by the improvements on the human scale. I.e
Cars: Good for us, sucks for the atmosphere
Fertilizer: Good for us, sucks for the fish in the bodies of water polluted with it
Computers: Good for us, sucks for the land around the city dump
