What is miles better nowadays than it was 30 years ago? And conversely, what is worse nowadays than it was 30 years ago?

I can still hear this. So I'de have to say the internet is better today

Cars have definitely got better.
More fuel efficient engines and especially the new electric engines.
Air con / climate control, sat nav, infotainment display, dash cams, cruise control, ABS, the list goes on.

BUT, the roads have got worse, there’s the morning school run, afternoon school run and rush hour traffic jams, just dreadful.
They are building thousands of new homes here in Howfen and NOT ONE new road put in!!!!!!!!!!.

The climate uk is better since burning coal at home was outlawed. No more smoggy mornings.

Instant heat on a freezing morning , instead of having
to "make the fire " and scrape ice off the inside of the windows.

definitely a step forwards.
