To mark International Day of Happiness (20th March 2020) we’ve put together some statistics to show how close we are to a goal of 100% long term wellbeing. These figures include environmental protection which is so crucial to securing our supplies of basic needs such as food, water, clean air and homes.
It’s kind of obvious that we need to protect our environment to secure our own long term wellbeing, but it helps having the data. As well as protecting our basic needs, a protected environment helps with improving our social contact, esteem and self-actualisation (or a state of having lots of peak experiences).
