Video of the Centuries: The Converging World: 200 Countries, 200 Years in 4 Minutes by Hans Rosling

By Andis Kaulins

ADVERTISEMENTS

The reality of positive development on our planet in the last 200 years is so spectacular, that it is a wonder that mainstream news media do not concentrate on the GOOD NEWS rather than on the sensationalistic bad news they spread each and every day.

Here is the video of the decade, showing a converging world in terms of life expectancy and average income - for the entire world - in a moving brilliant timeline over 200 years, 200 countries, in 4 minutes. You will feel different about this planet -- and about its politicians, who help make this development possible -- when you are finished. They are achieving miracles -- and that is what the real news should be reporting.

Hat tip to CaryGEE.
