Joe Versus the World (Again): The Value of Empathy

My dialogue with my old pal the World continues. (You can check out my previous conversation here.) This chat took place in July of 2020. Back then, at the advent of Covid, the world around us seemed pretty grim; today, it’s arguably even worse.

But all is not lost. I am a firm believer in hope. Collectively, we can make this planet a better place. It may require much thought and effort, but it can be done. How, though?

Well, turning to the World for advice, I found (not surprisingly) that it has some strong opinions. From a critique of my facial hair to a lesson we should have learned from the dinosaurs. Good advice, I think — along with a dire prediction.
