Right now the world feels heavy. There’s a lot of tension in the Middle East after the US bombed Iranian nuclear sites oil prices jumped and there’s even talk of Iran blocking the Strait of Hormuz which could hurt global energy supply. A short ceasefire between Israel and Iran is holding for now but people are worried it won’t last.

The economy isn’t helping either  growth is slow everywhere prices are up and people are feeling the pinch. Bad weather is hitting hard too: floods in China and Mexico and coral reefs are bleaching at record levels. Meanwhile wars and hunger crises in places like Sudan eastern Congo and Kashmir are pushing millions to the edge.

In short the world’s dealing with conflict climate problems and economic uncertainty all at once. We can only hope leaders choose peace and real solutions before things get worse.
