Another good idea. 

How do we become more happy? Richard Layard suggests it’s all about creating a more cooperative and less competitive society. We need a society where getting more and more (at the expense of other people getting less and less) is no longer the goal, and where we focus on improving the quality of our experience and our relationships with others instead. 

Sounds good. Apparently it all starts with individuals as well, in fact you can even sign up as part of the ‘Happiness Movement’ on the website.
