Based on a survey of 34 countries conducted between Oct. 25-Nov. 8, 2024

I wonder how many people's outlook on 2025 changed around November 6th, and therefore how different this would look today?

I was getting ready to say....no way is the US sitting at 70%.

There be some dark days ahead:

  • All of the red flags for a new pandemic are emerging.
  • We've crossed the +1.5° C global warming max temp to avoid catastrophic problems over the next 100 years.
  • Our new upcoming President is a billionaire's wet dream, and he's planning to gut all EV and Green Energy Initiatives.

Why would anyone be optimistic next year?
