We're on the precipice of a huge jump in human wellbeing and happiness. Existential Hope, part of the Foresight Institute, have featured my article below:

We’ve been to the moon and wiped diseases off the map, yet global happiness levels have been largely flat for decades. How can we build a happier civilization?

Neurotech could offer a new way forward. We already have devices that can shift our mood by reading and stimulating brain activity with precision. They’re being used to treat depression and anxiety, but they could soon move from the lab to the mainstream.

Scaled responsibly, this could decrease societal violence and excessive consumerism. But we need to build ethical governance to prevent addiction or misuse for authoritarian control.

BP CEO Bernard Looney says the current pandemic has strengthened his commitment to tackling the climate crisis. If @bp_plc really wants to be a part of a cleaner, healthier & more resilient future, it needs to stop drilling for new oil and gas and go 100% renewable. #bpNetZero
