Campus Protestants: In the aftermath of the arrests of 47 protesters and the clearing of a Gaza Solidarity Encampment, a confrontation between police and protesters was replaced by simmering hard feelings and questions about what will come next.

Can’t Afford to California: Home prices in California reached a new record high in April as sales increased despite elevated mortgage rates and the state’s seemingly insurmountable housing shortage. Cost of Cars: When comparing how many miles people drive gasoline, hybrid and electric vehicles, 3-year-old gas cars are driven 12,813 miles a year while EVs are driven 20 percent less, or 10,256 miles. Plug-in hybrids are driven 12,199 miles, or 4.8 percent less than gasoline cars, while standard hybrids are driven 12,471 miles, or 2.7 percent less than gasoline models.

Three of the biggest questions of our time are: Will the earth survive humanity? Will humanity survive itself? Or, will we finally figure out a way to live with ourselves and with the earth?It’s easy to be pessimistic about the answers. When you consider how our power to effect the planet continues to grow while our wisdom does not, perhaps pessimism is the most rational conclusion. The renowned evolutionary biologist E.O. Wilson put it this way:“The real problem of humanity is the following: We have Paleolithic emotions, medieval institutions and godlike technology.”There’s no question in my mind that he was correct. At this point in our story we are essentially infants playing with loaded guns.But I think there may still be room to hope. I think it’s possible, perhaps even probable, that we’ll turn this around. And what is that hope anchored to? Divine intervention? No. Innate human goodness? No. My hope is anchored to the very thing that caused our problems to begin with—good old-fashioned human self-inter
