Can you provide some sources? Last time I looked into statistics on these topics I found the opposite to be true.

The brothers Rosling have a nice talk about how all the big stats are improving globally (gender equality, education, health, extreme poverty, life expectation)

All the stats that we self-interested humans care about anyway.

The stats on the planet we live in are bad and getting worse. There is 30% more carbon dioxide in the air now than when I was born.

All the improvements in gender equality mean nothing compared to that and the trend behind it.

The parent I responded to was not talking about climate change. Sure that's a whole different debate
