Hi, I’m actually the creator of that webpage. I’ll probably delete this comment later to protect my anonymity on lemmy, but while I have you here I’d like to address this concern. I actually did consider a few sections on climate change, and the main thing that stopped me is that the scale of the climate emergency is so much more massive than people generally understand.

A to-scale illustration of the cost to solve climate change would be thousands of times larger than this graphic, and even then, international cooperation and climate denialism would remain major hurdles. I considered some smaller ticket items like “cost to install electric car chargers in every city” and stuff like that, but everything I came up with made only a small dent on its own.

Eventually, I began work on another project visualizing the world’s largest carbon emitters, which really got to the heart of the matter in displaying corporate greed, but at that point it would have been my fourth doom scroll visualization project, and I had had enough.

There are a bunch of other languages and countries here https://github.com/MKorostoff/1-pixel-wealth/blob/master/README.md

I recently saw an archeologist talk about this very thing. His conclusion: archeology actually takes great pains to infer gender roles based on artifacts and cultural context, not merely bones. Some ancient peoples had wildly different conceptions of gender than us, which often don’t align with biological sex. “We don’t dead name the dead” he said.

Interestingly, one of the dialogs of Plato is a conversation between Socrates and Thrasymachus, who basically preached exactly what Trump believes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrasymachus

anything about sanitary practices faces a massive barrier of getting people to accept and implement it. I could tell ancient doctors to wash their hands, but the first time someone tried that in actual history they laughed in his face.
