We are convinced that a small group of optimistic individuals who focus on sharing positive stories and striving to make a difference can truly transform our world. In today’s society, we often encounter overwhelming sadness, suffering, and unfairness. If you check your social media or news app, it’s easy to find a constant stream of negativity and despair. Many individuals, in their quest for a brighter outlook, tend to follow one of two paths: They either become overly fixated on the negative aspects of life, leading to exhaustion and a deep sense of cynicism. Alternatively, they may choose to ignore reality altogether, shutting themselves off from the harsh truths and injustices that others endure.

During a routine research dive off the coasts of Southern California and Alaska in 2021, Occidental College professor Shana Goffredi scoured the ocean floor looking for methane seeps — deep-sea spots where methane gas bubbles up from the Earth’s crust.

In total, approximately 43 million Americans owe $1.77 trillion in student loan debt. The Department of Education has not collected on defaulted loans since March 2020, a policy of the COVID-19 lockdown era, which was continually extended by the Biden administration.
