Is life today better or worse than it was 50 years ago?
The most important difference is that
People are healthier today, and they live longer.
But people don’t take as much exercise as they did.
People walk or use their bikes less, and they’re lazier.
And that makes life more dangerous and less healthy.
I really want to do my best.
