Guys, I don't think I will make it to the end. I could live to 122 years old but I don't want to.

Extreme poverty worldwide is down from 38% to 8.5% since 2000. Global median income has doubled in that period. And yes, that's adjusted for inflation.

Oh, and renewable energy generation as share of the global energy mix has consistently beaten expectations during that period, too. Solar, specifically.

But energy use is way up and AI data centers have erased all gains from renewables.
