"Once extinct in the wild, Przewalski’s horse is the last fully wild horse in the world, genetically distinct from all domesticated horses. Originally from Mongolia, they’ve been rewilded to a number of countries in Europe." humanprogress.org/rewilding-proj…
Why do so many people reflexively favor social solutions to environmental problems while discounting technological breakthroughs? The answer lies in our evolutionary past. humanprogress.org/why-we-distrus…

The Human Development Index (HDI) was created in 1990 to measure the expansion of human choices using three metrics: life expectancy, education level, and income per capita. Between 1990 and 2023, the global average HDI score grew by nearly 30 percent.

As countless examples show—from the restoration of Notre Dame to the Victorian neighborhoods of Virginia—modern people are perfectly capable of recreating the architectural styles of the past. humanprogress.org/do-we-live-in-…
Doomsday predictions about climate change-driven heat mortality are pessimistic as well as condescending. Humans are not passive, hapless creatures plodding along to their doom, but a uniquely innovative species capable of rapid and continual adaptation. humanprogress.org/the-heat-crisi…
