We're uncomfortable about considering history as a science. It's classified as a social science, which is considered not quite scientific.
There's something quite exciting when you have a history with somebody and you see them do new and different things.
And given that there's been probably a ten-fold amount of information about terrorism through the media than there has about climate change; I think that's quite an interesting statistic.

Even if people just change two or three things that they are able to sustain over time, it makes quite a difference eventually.
I think I'm actually quite a materialistic person, I value what it takes to make a car or build a nice house. Money does change things, but how it changes people depends on how they react to it.
