Your monthly reminder that people DO care and this IS hope for the future. Thank you for these monthly videos, it’s always great to get a little good news on my feed
To be totally honest I cried when you talked about the restoration of axolotls. They are such a beautiful species and being Mexican it makes me so happy to see that there is hope for these species as well as I am so proud to be proud of my country. Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing this good news!
The idea is great to begin with, but the mobile aspect must be a game-changer. Imagine having to haul all the rubble somewhere to be recycled. This was my favorite part of the video! The world could use that technology in a lot of places, not just after wars, but in sites of deindustrialization, too. Which, as we know, is all over the world.
I absolutely love your Good News! I’m an old woman now and I’m grateful I’ll leave the planet knowing that the younger generation is so inspired to work on repairing the damage that humans have done to our oceans and rivers and forests! I share your videos with the few friends that are still on the planet with me. Thank you so very much 🙏❤️👵🏼
My family has always had a very pessimistic view of the world and our future, but a few months ago in August I found your channel and have shared your videos with them. Your videos make my family and I see that humanity is trying to treat each other, and our world better. Thank you so much!
I'm in the US, Florida.. With our absolutely insane election going on and half the country fighting against anything that is good for our planet and our inhabitants, this video brought me to tears, thank you for reminding me that there are amazing things happening worldwide.
@@sirmeowthelibrarycat I'm not arguing it's not factual, I'm saying you've taken the focus off a 3 good amazing things and pointed it at a negative instead. I say "I like that good thing" you respond with "but what about this bad thing". We're here to celebrate good news.
Thank you from the botom of my heart for making these videos. I have many many sleepless nights worried about the state of the world. Your videos make me able to focus on the good happening in the world and it is a gigantic boost for my mental health. Thank you!
The eco-tourism option is very good to highlight, especially in understanding the why fisherman fish the fish they do, rather than pointing the blame finger all the time. Hope this trend catches on world-wide! Especially for manta-rays. There are certain villages that profit from manta ray fishing, and I wonder if they've switched to tourism or not. Hopefully!
Yeah it's easy to make rash judgements from the other side of the world when you don't really live the same life as someone elsewhere, so hope this adds some perspective and helps people empathise a bit better
Adding a comment for the UA-cam algorithm. Thank you SO much for these videos. I just subscribed, because boy do I need to hear good, uplifting news to remind me that there are still good people in the world. These videos give me some hope in humanity again, just when I need it most. Bless you, bless you a thousand times over, for doing this!
I'm always happy to see more people taking action for our planet, it gives me the strength to keep doing the small but significant actions in my daily life too ❤
8:30 ... This is amazing! It sounds like that will also help, if we ever get to stop war from happening, in regions struck by natural disasters! And to the sharks: SHARKS ARE FREAKING COOL!! They are like living dinosaurs (a lot like crocodiles), they are really tame to swim with, they don't actually gonna bite you just cause you bleed and best: THEY AREN'T AHOLES!! They aren't dolphins! They don't harrass their pray or anything or force others to mate with them. They are CHILL AF!! And I think sharks are the best in the ocean!!
Heat-resistant corals make me so happy! Obviously it’s not a solution to everything, but since the oceans will heat up and get more acidic even if the world does reach our 1.5 C goal, it’s a major relief
I just found this in my feed. I am in love. Your smile, your voice, your beautiful outlook, and hope for the future of our world is just the kind of thing I need to see more of. Thank you so much for running a channel like this. 🥰🥰🥰
It's Good to know that, despite everything getting hotter and the weather getting so much more extreme than I could ever imagine. People still are trying to do what they can to make big changes To reduce the planet getting warmer, it makes me Believe That there is a future for my younger siblings...
This video appeared in my recommended feed today and I'm so happy the algo is pushing it. You, good sir, made my day a bit brighter and you gained a new follower in the process. With negativity being broadcasted so wildly, it's sometimes hard to remember most of humanity IS good and just wants to help nature and each other. Time to go back and watch your previous videos to boost my dopamine production!
Your good news videos helped me through horrible times in my life :3 Thanks to you I have gathered enough internal strength to move out, and begin my life as it should be. And although I cannot yet at the moment I'm soon going to try to get into some voluntary work over in my area of Poland (The country I am from) You will likely not see this comment and that's alright. Thank you again for helping the fire of my hope blaze with new power :D
I do my best to read every comment so thank you so much for sharing and sorry to hear what you’ve been going through. It sounds like you’re one step closer to a better place so keep it up my friend you’ve got this!!
Thank you for the wonderful videos you do and your delivery is just so heart warming as well! Your smile tells us how much you care and are delighted by every bit you tell us, it's just wonderful to know that someone out there is so passionate :D
So much good news! While Australians seem to have dominated the round up this month, i wanted to mention a building material company id not known existed, who take straw and turn it into alternate plaster board or ceiling material. Its fire proof, has thermal properties and dampens sound. Not water proof though so requires good weather proofing. Theyve been around since the 70's and are called Durra Panel. Then other companies in the world are making concrete alternatives, rammed earth and straw bale constructed buildings, let alone myco bricks, coffee grounds, old clothes that cant be recycled. There are lots of fabulous news in the building sector that can help address a major cause of housing affordability, namely cost and access to construction materials. Yeah to all the out of the box thinkers in the world 🥳
Thanks for making these. It's really easy to fall into doom spirals because these stories just don't see major coverage, so you assume little is being done. I've always had faith that things will get better, but it's nice to have some actual tangibility to that hope.
Just found your channel and from the bottom of my heart, thank-you so, so much for this vid and your content. I've been experiencing a lot of existential dread due to the climate crisis lately. So much of the mainstream news is doom and gloom, but there's a lot of hopeful, amazing stories out there too I'm trying to focus on. (Like, I'm in Australia and didn't hear a peep about the heat-resistant corals or MCCs efforts to rebuild Ukraine at all!) And for anyone else out there feeling overwhelmed about climate change, my advice is to try connecting to your local community. I've found a lot of groups fighting to make changes close to home, so you might be surprised for the better!
Your good news videos are so full of hope...it's truly heartwarming to see so many different projects from around the world that are producing positive results! I'm happy to be a supporter!😊
Thank you. I hope we progress more. Not wanting to bring a downer on a chanel like this, but the country is still looking at opening new coal mines (to sell the coal elsewhere i guess) and giving more oil and gas licences. Pressure is still needed
Servus from Vienna! So glad you were able to see the habitats in Austria. Yoir videos make me feel positively emotional and hopeful. What A BRIGHT REPORT. Thank you!
I love your channel, you make me cry tears of joy with every video you upload :) Also I'm not sure about proper pronunciation of 'axolotl' but the way you said it is so far my favorite, totally cute ❤
10:50 just wanna mention here, in India almost all wildlife populations have seen growth, since the last time when wildlife population came to almost a brink during the colonial era, this includes big species such as Rhinos, elephants, Bisons(Gaur),Tigers, Lions, Leopards, snow leopards, clouded leopards and every single wildlife there is. The only failure points were decline in Vulture population since late 90s and also few other bird species such as Himalayan owls, great Indian bastards etc, but recently they too seem to have reached a stable point(not declining anymore), and the other one is Asiatic Cheetahs that went completely extinct during the colonial era, but over the last few years, different sub breeds of African Cheetahs are brought here under a special program to make them breed with each other and give rise to a indigenous breed again, so far, the results are mixed, but on the positive side, may be within next 2 decades, we will see the Cheetahs roaming in Indian forests again.
Awesome channel Sam! We searched for good news stories and they were so hard to find in comparison to all the negative stories! Keep it up mate good on ya 👍
@itsSamBentley yeh thats what we found! Too easy to be dragged into watching the bad news of the world. Well done for being unique on UA-cam thats not easy is it!
Needed this today, I’ve recently been feeling just a looming sense of dread about the world, but these legitimately brighten my days so much. I’m so glad to keep hearing about the good things going on
Your monthly reminder that people DO care and this IS hope for the future. Thank you for these monthly videos, it’s always great to get a little good news on my feed
I hope it can be a reminder of those things!
🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪 just leaving some food for the algorithm! good news, yeah!!

Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing this good news!
I cried when I heard the part about the coral reefs. It’s such a relief to watch these videos.
Mobile brick builing machines safely recycling rubble are cool af. They should get more PR.
Right?!
Yes! And who doesn´t like huge LEGO? Real serious LEGO! Made me all happy :)
The idea is great to begin with, but the mobile aspect must be a game-changer. Imagine having to haul all the rubble somewhere to be recycled. This was my favorite part of the video!
The world could use that technology in a lot of places, not just after wars, but in sites of deindustrialization, too. Which, as we know, is all over the world.
@@elainebelzDetroit my thoughts exactly! This takes recycling to another level.
@@itsSamBentleywhat is the manufacturer of that machine please....🎉❤ Love all your work.

I share your videos with the few friends that are still on the planet with me. Thank you so very much 🙏❤️👵🏼
Thanks Barbara but we need caring people like you on this planet so don’t leave us too soon!
Heat tolerate corals is major! We have hope to salvage the reefs despite the warming, that's fantastic!
Yeah we need to limit it as much as possible to give reefs the best chance at adapting, but it's something at least!
Also despite ongoing bleaching in some areas. Recent surveys on the GBR have found that coral cover has increased over all. 🐠🐡🐠😎
🍪🍪🍪🍪🍪 just leaving some food for the algorithm ^^ good news, yeah!!!

Ah no way say hey to your fam for me!
This channel is a small spot of peace and joy in all the chaos. Thank you for what you do!
I really wish there were more channels like you, you give so much hope in these times where there seems to be so much doom and gloom
I'm in the US, Florida..
With our absolutely insane election going on and half the country fighting against anything that is good for our planet and our inhabitants, this video brought me to tears, thank you for reminding me that there are amazing things happening worldwide.
I'm crying I'm so happy people care
Thank you for pronouncing Axolotl correctly!
I would be lying if I said I knew that before researching this video!
You are so close to 50k!!!! Come on UA-cam, boost this channel!!!!
This is my first time seeing this channel and I love this man. Finally someone’s bringing positive news up.
thanks for providing us with the good news WE CRAVE
This is honestly one of the few things i look forward to every month. Thank you.
I'm impressed with both of the stories from my fellow Aussies - turning rubble back into buildings and turning fishing into tourism?! Incredible
And the Great Barrier Reef too, the Aussies actually quietly dominated this news round up actually thinking about it!
🤔 Indeed, but the Australian government still supports coal mining . . . !
@@sirmeowthelibrarycat don't poo poo their achievements because they aren't perfect. We're here to celebrate GOOD news!
@ 😠 I did no such thing. My comment is factual. Which in the current linguistic dystopia appears to be unacceptable to you.

That was a particularly good-feeling list! Wow, thanks so much. My faith in the future is so much higher, hearing all these stories
Thank you! In the USA we NEED good news!! Desperately! You have my subscription!! You seem happy to report it, as happy as I am to see it!! 😊❤❤ 😊
Thank you from the botom of my heart for making these videos. I have many many sleepless nights worried about the state of the world. Your videos make me able to focus on the good happening in the world and it is a gigantic boost for my mental health. Thank you!

🤔 ‘Fauna and Flora’ has mentioned the crisis facing manta rays. Please check them for further information.
Leaving a comment, to push this video further on UA-cam. The algorithm should pick this up
Appreciated!

Aww I’m just showcasing the actual cool people doing amazing things!
8:30 ... This is amazing! It sounds like that will also help, if we ever get to stop war from happening, in regions struck by natural disasters!

So happy to find your channel with positive news. You got a new subscriber from Australia!
Aussies smashing it this month!
9:25 that's crazy!! i just learnt about chinampas at school this week, had no idea they also helped the ecosystem. your videos are awesome
No way what a small world! When I was doing the map view of those chinampas I was like wow they look incredible from above! Such a cool ecosystem
2:50 he casually time traveled! 😱 (Great video by the way ❤️ Thank you for telling us about these good news)
I have to keep my time travel tech on the DL. 🤫 it only sends me back in time to Austria too, super specific!
The title did not lie, I had missed all of these stories! Especially a fan of the one with the coffee grounds, that just sounds really cool.
I love when I see a new video from Sam early in the morning before work. It's very uplifting, unlike the local news channel.
once again, a huge thank you for your work and these lights of hope in todays world. you are really helping me to not get lost. thanks and love to you
You’re more than welcome🙌🏼
Heat-resistant corals make me so happy! Obviously it’s not a solution to everything, but since the oceans will heat up and get more acidic even if the world does reach our 1.5 C goal, it’s a major relief
It won't meet 1.5 but I'm hopeful that so many are working to the earths inhabitants adaptations
I just found this in my feed. I am in love. Your smile, your voice, your beautiful outlook, and hope for the future of our world is just the kind of thing I need to see more of. Thank you so much for running a channel like this. 🥰🥰🥰

It's Good to know that, despite everything getting hotter and the weather getting so much more extreme than I could ever imagine. People still are trying to do what they can to make big changes To reduce the planet getting warmer, it makes me Believe That there is a future for my younger siblings...
I need this in my life. Thank you. Ive been feeling so down about the climate crisis and my childrens futures
Hope this can help and can help inspire your kids of some solutions to explore to reassure them!
I felt chills hearing bats moving into old coal mines. Didn’t know that would make me so happy. 🥲
My love, you are so precious!! We all need to hear some good news especially now. Thank you for everything you do 🤍🌿
You’re far too kind thank you!

The first story is INCREDIBLE. Gives me hope for the US to transition to clean energy
Yup. Just gotta vote for someone who isn't saying 'drill, drill, drill!'
Your videos keep me going sometimes! In all this doom and gloom, you truly are a ray of sunshine! Keep going Sam, you’re making a difference! Xx
Thanks Jem!
Those ocean accomplishments are incredible. It's great to see more marine sanctuaries being established and sharks having a win.
Yeahh there were quite a few so had to get a little quickfire section in there for them!
I always feel way better after your vids. Thanks for the positive energy bro!
You got it George!
Please never stop making these things

If I had time I’d make more or make them longer but glad they can help in some way!
Yay! 🥳 Great news about the corals! 🪸
Let’s hope it helps give more time to help them adapt ❤️🪸
love you!! thank you for spreading light
Chinampa's are a perfect example of sustainable agriculture and conservation going hand in hand. 🌾👍
Today I learned how axolotl is actually pronounced. Interesting!
Your videos are the only thing keeping me sane. Thank you Sam!
Have a great week Aidan !
Thank you king
You’ve got it 🙌🏼
Loved this weeks stories! And the coral one is most interesting as I am literally talking&learning about this in my college right now
Oh no way!
Thank you! 💚🖤
