World Starts to Catch Up with Make Everybody Happy

‘An equal and habitable world is possible’: academics set out sweeping vision for planetary survival

Global report provides an alternative to climate breakdown, political extremism and economic tensions 

I mean, it's nice that the world is catching up and everything, but it feels like too little too late.

I created this site in 2008 with the idea that we could find a way forwards in very much the way being described in the report out today:

and reported in the Guardian in the following two articles

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/jun/04/happiness-is-not-just-about-gdp-ambitious-plan-or-utopia

Since then we have had 18 years of regression into a fragmenting society ruled by a small cohort of billionaires. Smart phones stole our attention, social media robbed us of our data and now AI is selling us back a regurgitated version of our own work.

How?

Science has new evidence about how to be happy. Money is not everything - your environment and your way of thinking are the keys.

What?

We know what people can do for themselves to be happier. Treat yourself to a bit more happiness today!

Why?

Consumerism damages the enviroment and makes us unhappy. Get yourself happy and save the planet.
