In light of the fact that there is so much negativity following this election, I thought it’d be a good time to shine light on some of the good things that happened in 2016. People are deeming 2016 as the worst year ever, and I was a little disheartened too after the election, so I decided to spread in some of the positive things that came out of this year.
- The tiger and panda numbers are growing. I do not know how people can see this as bad news. Pandas and tigers aren’t going extinct!!!
- 500 elephants were located to better safer homes!!!
- Harriet Tubman will replace Andrew Johnson on the 20 dollar bill!
- The death of a meme. Leonardo Dicaprio finally won an Oscar this year. After years of memes about him not winning an Oscar he finally pulled out a win.
- A sequel to Finding Nemo came out this year called Finding Dory!
- News about another Incredibles movie coming out also came out. Which a sequel for The Incredibles is long overdue.
- Deadpool also came out this year. And if you haven’t seen this movie yet I’d highly recommend it.
- Pokemon Go players placed lure modules near hospitals that had sick kids.
- This year we’ve made progress on the vaccines for lung and brain cancer.
- Scientists discovered the gene responsible for ALS thanks to the ice bucket challenge. A movement like that made a difference.
Now besides these main good things there are still other good things that happen in the world. Someone got married this year, someone out there got a puppy this year, someone got a promotion this year after working for a long time. Good things happen all around us and we shouldn’t let the bad things that happen consume us. Let’s spread the positivity.
