Good News From Around the World

So I think we all can agree that if you listen to the media and your preferred News station then the world sounds like this horrible place. And in recent years it only seems to be getting worse. Every night it seems like some new tragedy has struck. But nobody is highlighting the good things that happen. Because of that, I’m adding this to our weekly routine. From now on every week, I will choose some positive news stories from around the world to highlight. Maybe, just maybe, the world will begin to feel like a better place.

2 New Javan Rhinos Were Born in Indonesia.

With fewer than 80 Javan Rhinos left in the world, the birth of two more is quite significant for those that remain. Inhabiting Indonesia, these Rhinos were captured on hidden trail cams. Because the population is so small, the area where they live is heavily guarded. https://www.savetherhino.org/asia/indonesia/good-news-for-2023-two-more-javan-rhinos/
