Video

We watched a video on how the countries have changed over the years by Hans Rosling. He taught a college class called Global Health. In the chart, countries in the bottom left corner are poor and the top right corner is wealthy. Some countries are still taking a lot of time to make their way to the top right hand corner due to a controlling government or health or financial issues. The video was made in 2009 and he had a very positive outlook on the future. I wonder if he would have seen things the same way if he made the video in 2018. He thought that the world would be mostly green and healthy and thriving. The world has not become very green and there are still many struggling countries. I think his outlook would be different on the future if the video had been created in 2018.
