You are so much more lucky than you think, even if you think you're not.
Most of us are dead proud of the good things we've done, and we tell ourselves how hard we have worked and how much we deserve it. But unfortunately we don't. This also works the other way round: we are never as much to blame for our 'failures' as we think.
Thing is most things in life are down to luck: not just whether you win the lottery or meet the perfect person, but deeper stuff. Like who your parents were and where (and when) you were born. That's a big idea to get your head around and it runs counter to most things our society tells us. And it's as true about climate change as anything else - what it means to us, and how important we think it is.
Joining Dave this episode are Will Snell and Anita Sangha from the Fairness Foundation. They talk all about their brilliant and challenging report, Rotten Luck. You'll never look the same way at someone down on their luck again.
Owl noises:

— 31:02 - Kim Stanley Robinson’s Ministry for the Future: “chilling yet hopeful”.

— 36:18 - The Welsh Well-being of Future Generations Act is here.

— 36:49 - all rise for the UN’s Summit of the Future, September 2024.

— 40:45 - Over to Wiki for more on luck egalitarianism (or read Will’s report).
