We often worry about the wrong things. People killed annually by Sharks 10 Elephants 100 Hippos 500 Snails 10,000 Dogs 25,000 Snakes 50,000 People 475,000 Mosquitoes 725,000 🧪
This graphic, created for Bill Gates' website, shows that diseases transmitted by mosquitoes are responsible for vastly more human deaths than other animals. While sharks inspire fear in many, they kill few people.

Is your green the same as mine? Probably not. But does that mean color is just in the eye of the beholder? Philosophers argue no — colors are as objective as length or temperature. Despite variations in perception, color can be measured in science, biology and everyday life 🧪 💚

Colors are objective, according to two philosophers − even though the blue you see doesn’t match what I see
An object’s color appears differently under different lighting and against different backgrounds − for different viewers. But that doesn’t mean colors are subjective.
