I'm Dr. Lari Santos, host of the Happiness Lab Podcast, a show that examines what science teaches us about how to live more joyful lives.

These days, climate change causes many of us to feel sad, angry, and hopeless.

But in a new season, I'll be looking at how doing a little good for the planet

can make you, your friends, and your family feel closer and happier in 2024.

per capita the poorest country in the Middle East because it doesn't have really any oil.

Very, very little in the way of natural resources.
