He looks at statistics on life expectancy, income, internet usage, etc for all countries and uses it to come to conclusions on the reality of what is happening in the world.
Journalism on the other hand just looks for the most amount of bloodshed, hate, and disease anywhere and calls it reality.
Thank you Hans! The world needs more people like you!
Below is a quick video of a discussion on the world between Hans and a journalist.
If you liked that video and want to see a bit more detail on what Hans does every day, check out his incredible Ted talk.
All this talk about stats makes me wish I had paid more attention in my Stats 105 course in college....
So informative! I Love his use of data and the amazing visualization of it!
