Well said!

This report makes for sobering reading, but it's never too late to stop fighting for a better tomorrow:

Remember, hope and optimism are important motivators:

and pessimism isn't useful:

So try not to let bad news like this get you down or facilitate a spiral into Doomerism:

And try to limit the bad news you ingest, as it can be bad for your metal health:

And be mindful of the media's propensity to favour bad news over good:

Finally, remember to take time to remind yourself about everything going right in the world

Things are tough out there, so try and remain positive friends!
