Imagine for a moment a, world without disease, a world without death.
A world in which people are free to live their lives
without cancer, diabetes, dementia, heart attacks, or lung disease.
A world without extreme cases of depression,
anxiety, schizophrenia, or neurodevelopmental disorders.
A world where children meet their great, great, great, grandparents…
and the dog you grew up with…
Is the dog your children one day play with…
For one thing, a future like this will require a much different approach to society
Sustainability will have far greater importance in managing the resources of an undying world.
Population pressures will require a rethinking of every aspect of our economies…
Our sources and use of energy
Our definitions of work and compensation
From the food, we eat to the waste we produce
Everything will need to be rethought,
reimagined and re-engineered
This modern age of miracle medical science
This undying world- is not the age we are living in…
But it is the age we are now building.
And the solutions that will be required
Are the solutions we have needed for some time
Solutions are provided here each week on
This Week in Science
